Mirror of Time

Mirror of Time

  Is it the stars?
  Is it the rain?
  Is it the light?
  
  Have I found something 
  that cannot be touched 
  by time?
  
  Is it the golden pot
  at the end of a broken rainbow?

  Is it the smiles at a sunset 
  that waves good night?
  
  Have I reached 
  the timeless breach?
  
  Is it the moon?
  Is it a mermaid?
  Is it someone I know?
  
  The night is reaching its end,
  and I, after being lost,
  have found the key:
  
  It is a mirror.

  And as I look 
  myself in it…

  It breaks, 
  so does my skin, 
  the stars, its light, 
  and the rain that reminds me
  that I have never been the reflection,
  but the answer that finds itself in the surrounding wholeness. 

In our search for infinity, we find ourselves against time… and a mirror. The one that tells us how we look like. Is that mirror telling the truth or is the mirror telling what time whispers it should reflect?

    Nice work and words. If only we could escape from time, then we could never loose those dearest to us.
