Untitled

One look in the mirror
What do I see?
Two beady eyes looking back at me

Every secret, every regret draws me nearer
They're there in the eyes
Through them, I can hear the soul's cries

A window into the soul some say
I daresay not
All I see are regretful memories forgot

Clouds in the pupils remind me of a rainy day
Tears of the soul
Making me again whole

Redemption is what the eyes beckon
Death is what comes
Beating its deafening war drums

The soul is but barren
Crying out for a drop of water
An owl in the tree the watcher
Does nothing
