Gold and silver-
Platinum maybe.
It shines.
It’s all the same.
Framing the mirror-
They say it reflects.
It doesn’t. The mirror doesn’
t reflect.
Mirrors were created by the devil.
Envy is a sin.
It poisons the heart in every reflection and whispers-
“Beauty is your only weapon. Use it for salvation”
It echoes a flawed world-
Never beautiful, never perfect, never enough.
Each reflection leads the eye to the brink of insanity.
It whispers everlasting youth-
The greatest lie of all,
Disguised as the greatest wish ever made,
Marching along with faceless soldiers
In a dream parade.
You can’t look away.
It won’t let you.
Your dreams, your desires, your wishes,
Your soul-
You are the slave of your desires.
But when you do look away,
When you return to the realm of real and the sane,
You realize-
You are drowning.
You drown in seas of fire.
Beautiful. Thanku for sharing 🙂
