Reflection

I don’t give a damn, I don’t

Yes I do, I’m lying to you

I see through a glass

Darkly I see

But don’t you see I need

You to be on your knees

I’ve been too small, forever

To see myself beyond the horizon

Of your shoulders, your brow

I want to believe I can be

Alone in this crowd of hallways

And still be true, to me not you

I can’t be unseen mirror to mirror

My flesh needs its own portrait

More than most but still less

Than the best meant for me

Hold my heart not my heels

I have hammers to wield

Free my hands from this grasp

Thundering gods raise these walls

And we fall step by step one more step

But my fight is my war, my own

I don’t fear what may or may not be

I hurl stones in the sea

I don’t give a damn, I don’t

Yes I do, I’m lying to you

I see through a glass

Darkly I see
