mirrors speak

I’m sorry I don’t keep in touch
I’m busy searching for an inner love
This face is a mask I adorn
This body’s a onesie I’ve worn.

Fleeting glimpse of her in the mirror
gave me hope for an inner love
These tears stream
I’m staring back at an aching dream.

Mirrors speak,
Of an inner need to be free,
Mirrors speak,
Of a full life, if you dare to be.
