Such a forgotten disaster
I am but broken shards of glass
All that's left is the blood
And my heart that beats, at last.
I am a reflective recollection
I have no secrets to hide
What you see is what you get
There is nothing inside.
No blue veins filled with regret
No tears that I can cry
Only the immortal restlessness
Cradled in one eye
Behold my gaze and don't tremble
Try not to lose your breath
For if you do, I cannot release
The hold you have on death
Look at me, but don't pity
But keep your eyes open
For what you see is what you get
A mortal that is broken
What did you see in my eye?
Is it what I foretold?
Am I to die every day of my life
With hands left shaking cold?
How can this be beautiful
When it's all I've ever known
Days of thoughtless grays
And nights I spent alone
How can you still be standing
But I tremble at what I see?
Is it that mournful tear you shed
For the sake of losing me?
Though I have one eye to cry
And only one tear allowed to fall
With the other eye, I see
This life so clearly after all
The reason I am bleeding,
And the broken glass collection
What you see is what you get
And I am your reflection.
