Backwards Window
-
People pass behind me,
Ignoring what they don't want to see.
I am nothing more than a shadow.
-
The eyes staring back at me
spear broken glass into me.
-
I want to look away,
I really do,
But I can't.
-
They pull me in like gravitation,
To their empty dark pools,
Much like mine.
-
The jagged edges,
Of the glass cut
into my fingers,
As I try to reach out
to the person on the other side.
-
Teammates?
Yes.
-
Friends?
Ha.
-
He turns away at my antics.
He'll attack me when I'm down.
-
Every time
we meet eyes,
Fury burns in our hearts.
Hatred boils over.
Masks shatter.
-
So Alike,
Yet so different.
-
And then,
Through that fractured window,
I see something flicker...
Something I remember from
long ago,
Before a mask made me the deception that I've become.
-
And...
I start
to think...
-
What...
What if...
What if, the window,
Were really a mirror,
And the person I'm staring at,
Really is
me?
Bah…
Read? Review?
