The Looking Glass

Through the looking glass I see you

I wave but you don't see me

I pound but you don't hear me

I begin to scream but you continue to walk away

I begin to cry but no one but me can see my tears

I am trapped behind the looking glass

The person who looks like me on the other side of the looking glass isn't really me

The real me screams for you to notice me but you can't see behind the looking glass

If I were to break through the looking glass would you hold me or continue to walk away

I know I should run far away never to look again upon the looking glass but all I can do is stand here and scream to myself

So much time has passed I don't even know why I continue to scream

Maybe some day my screams will shatter the looking glass

Then I will stop screaming
