Reflections - Attrition

I am a mirror

Not ordinary

I am here to send you strength

To show your darkest fears

You hold my body to see yourself

In naked lights

Dark silhouettes crystallize at bedtime

I give myself totally so you may see your dreams

I ask nothing more than to let me love

Without walls, without words

Without thought, without lies

To take me in and breathe my mind

That is really yours, my friend

In reversed relief, you see your face

Deep within my eyes

And so you stare transfixed

All the good and bad, all the passing years

Gelled within fine webs of light

Surrounding the space between

Within and through

And what you do, you do with what you will
