Mirrorsight, Mirrorshroud

Every time I see your eyes I find

a hidden Self inside of you.

Bound within your very bones

There is a certain sense of symmetry:

A binding will, a sly intellect,

a certain special note that betrays your presence.

No matter when you hide, we shall find you,

the people of this world.

Dwell in shadows, or dwell in light,

You are born to silent destiny.

 

A curious strength, a muted virtuoso

that I somehow cleanly hear,

Your mind and your heart sing of

a twinned love for life.

Love from above, sharing this life

with the heights of the heavens themselves:

Love from below, for all those whom

are forgotten in this oft shadowed world

You walk the road less traveled, and

You walk in grace and beauty.

       May it always be so,

      World without end.

 

I hope that for Time we shall be friends.

 

 

 

Shadows of Past and Present

I never expected to care again.

I never expected to see

another hand reaching out that found its way to me.

 

I walked the halls yesterday,

the mists of memory.

I remembered those that came before

and found the pain they gave to me.

 

Hurt for hurt, wound for wound:

I traded blow for blow.

Until one day when I found

only injured innocents on the ground.

 

I know then I needed help,

as I became that which I hate.

I sought in darkness my own hope,

and I found it in your eyes.

So now I dwell in my own Self,

a wiser soul am I.

I remember my errors past

And now I seek the light.

 

But, know my journey ends not here,

for no one's ever done:

I walk the path of my perdition,

But I'll never walk alone.

 

 

 

A Tarnished Shine

'Tis a special bond that you possess

that your hand and heart are one.

Although you may never see

evidence of your own divinity

I can see, I can tell

the thousand wierdling touches

that mark you as a chosen one.

 

It's strange to see the many contradictions

that can live in an unquiet mind.

In you, or is it me,

I have a vision of another world

wherein the journey of a galaxy

holds no difference to

the dreams of a wayward fantasy.

That bright and holy spark within

gives rise to the one you are today.

Tomorrow, it could all change,

transform, and today could be

but a single dream in the multitude.

 

I do not believe that you would care.

 

Not you, the true survivor.

Not you, who stands alone.

 

Well, for you, and only you, know this.

I would still care.

 

 

Give Me the Answer to the Discordant Question

Where am I?

That is the question you ask of me.

Who am I?

That query is what you give to me.

Yes...I know the fear that binds your mind.

You want your answer, your miracle,

the understanding of your purpose.

It's too bad, it's just so sad,

that you see the question

and don't even notice the answer

plastered on your soul.

 

I've watched you in your monuments;

I've stalked you in your dreams.

I've told you at countless times

and it just slips on through the seams.

 

You've grown up, my little friend,

but have you grown enough.

I think I know the answer,

but I know you'll prove me wrong:

it's your nature and your destiny.

Nothing is ever simple where you're concerned,

but nothing's ever free.

 

In your hand are dreams and nightmares born.

Which are you?

I know, but I won't break the wager.
