The mirror
as i look into the mirror i see
you not me
as we walk oblivious
side by side
a feeling the mirror can’t hide
i touch mirror
and feel you
i walk away alone
and miss you
a parallel life
but neither of us know
when we will meet
or which way to go
it’s lonely sometimes
not knowing we’re together
we could walk oblivious
to one another forever
someday we know
our paths will cross
but when or how
the chance is a coin toss
helpless but hoping
the mirror will shatter
and then our existence
will finally matter
and open the door
on the other side
a shared existence
we’ll no longer hide
only a dream
our lonely lives will erase
ridding ourselves
of a vast empty space
we’ll never close the door
on one another
to finally have found
the missing lover
now I look into the mirror
and I see my face
with you behind me
in your destined place
you not me
as we walk oblivious
side by side
a feeling the mirror can’t hide
i touch mirror
and feel you
i walk away alone
and miss you
a parallel life
but neither of us know
when we will meet
or which way to go
it’s lonely sometimes
not knowing we’re together
we could walk oblivious
to one another forever
someday we know
our paths will cross
but when or how
the chance is a coin toss
helpless but hoping
the mirror will shatter
and then our existence
will finally matter
and open the door
on the other side
a shared existence
we’ll no longer hide
only a dream
our lonely lives will erase
ridding ourselves
of a vast empty space
we’ll never close the door
on one another
to finally have found
the missing lover
now I look into the mirror
and I see my face
with you behind me
in your destined place
