Mirror To Your Soul

Shadows hiding in darkness, the mirror to your soul

It is here, buried deeply, that the mystery conceals,

There is only one way for me to ever really know

Exactly what it is, that you really think or feel.

***

There is the darkness, reflections of your pain

It is in your eyes that I see the tales of gloom,

There are mysteries deep within your soul

Other impressions or maybe tales of doom.

***

Then again they always sparkle when you are playful

With cheeky mischief and surprise they will gleam,

At other times they will seem soft and faraway

As you get lost in your fantasy or dreams.

***

I wish to wander within their layers of depth

And take a long stroll throughout your mind,

To know of feelings such as worry or doubt

And I often wonder, at all that I would find.

***

While there I would take a peak within your past

See some of the sweet memories that linger on,

Discover the childish pranks and boyhood dreams

When life seemed perfect, nothing could go wrong.

***

I wonder if I asked, that within your loving soul

You could possibly find a special place for me,

A place where, during troubling or sad times

To where your thoughts would automatically flee.

***

Sadly I stay quiet, as I could never tell you my wish

You would unfairly judge me and call me a fool,

You see I know you don’t believe in weakness

And you detest it when emotions try to rule.

***

I’ll have to accept that you’ll never tell me how you feel

Understand that your wishes and dreams I’ll never find,

There is, for certain, only one way I could ever know

If I was to wander, through the mirrors of your mind.
