My Mirror
You were my sunlight & my silver moon
The breathless island & the swirling sea
My thought-dreams in the pink afternoon
And I seemed to think that you needed me
Because you shattered the clock face in the sand
& you sniped the telephone's tangled wire
Your beautiful words- they reached for my hand
& made me feel waves of an embers fire
but the drugstore people all turn their heads
Then say the peddler's an angle in disguise
Even you think there's some who'd be better dead
& that one time you unconsciously lied
But you showed me a flame possessed by few
& for this, I just want to say, Thank You
