In the rays of the Son.

The person I saw before me,
That face I knew so well
Is no longer familiar to see.
It’s not the one I saw yesterday,
and I can’t find a trace
Of that familiar voice,
In anything I say.

I search the depths of these eyes
Staring back at me.
They used to be
Full of hope. And love.
But now betrayal
And loneliness is all I see.

This person in front of me,
Is a stranger.
Although it scares me to the dept of my soul
I know I'm not in any danger.

For though I don't know her,
this girl is the only one
I truly understand.
She’s the girl in my mirror.

She lifts her blood stained arm
To touch the cold, invisible glass,
Raising her shattered gaze to meet mine
as I look at her tear stained cheeks,
I feel my hand, through the mirror pass.

We're becoming one person.
Her blood. A warm flow down my arm.
Her tears. Roll down my cheeks,
I gaze toward the sky
And I see the sun.

Shining down, radiating on me.
Once more I’m alone.
It warms my soul as I fade away.
My sight’s gone but I’m not afraid
I'm on my way home.

So when you find me
don't look for signs of life.
Don't mourn
Just because you find none.
Look skyward and you'll find me.
I found my resting place.
Here in the glowing rays of the Son.
