Mirrored

The mirror, dark and solitary.
Reaching out to grab you.
Then fading.
Black.

Making, the forever beat of its rhythm.
Fingering the notes, its forgotten.
Then fading.
Elapsed.

Helpless, heart as heavy as unforgiveness.
Hugging thin air that ran away.
Then fading.
Collapsed.

Look once more, see.
Raven, fly away.
Upon the thousands,
There is one.
