Looking Glass

by Juliet   Jul 19, 2011


Peering through this looking glass there's nothing but dispare
Trapped within this world or maybe just myself
I've crawled through broken glass
With blood up and down my knees
Cried tears into deep seas
I've seen the fires burning
I've seen the child come out of the flames
I've seen the scars, I've witnessed true pain
I've seen the loss within your eyes
I know its hard for you to trust me as it is for I to trust you
Through this mirror, through this glass of tragedy
I see the light, I see the darkness
I've seen miracles, and I've seen death
I've jumped off that window pane
I've stepped off of it as well
Crystal eyes, mezmerized, darkened through straight fear
Hypnotized, unbelievable, unfathomable....
I've seen the child cry whilst reaching out to air
I've witnessed tears crashing down like pouring rain
I've seen the unthinkable, made the imaginable
Hearing the songs of broken wings
I claw through padded walls
I watch others as they fall
I've seen linoleum covered in blood
I've cleaned the crimson sinks
I've walked through ashes, swam through souls
I've witnessed true loss of control...
For once, forever, for little, for always
The eyes never shut, the hand never lets go
I've walked through darkness with no light
I've shattered already broken glass
I've picked up pieces of once broken hearts
I've puzzled back those fallen apart
I've swam in the rivers red
I've looked into the eyes of death
I know the feeling of over dosing
I know the feeling of exploding
I can touch the ones not even there
Unworthy of his softened stare
And through this looking glass I see
Mixture of mass tragedies, hope and dreams
I've seen a rabbit, not of white, but black
I've seen the mischievous cheshire cat
I've met the lost and confused girl
I've had tea with the looney hatter
I've talked to the cards
I've painted roses red...
But I am still simply out, looking in...
Trapped inside a world, or trapped inside myself
Who knows?
