Mirror

Crayon wax
You’re a teething seether
Hug like a cancer
You’ve grown on me, I guess

Stab back
You’ve got an axe to hide
I could kill you
But you’ve already died

My eyes are wide red
I did what I had to do
Don’t take it out on me, my darlin’
Look at me, just look how far that I’ve come

Moon glass
I’m a lonely demon
The truth is a lie
I’ll tell it to myself, you know

Silverback
Like a phantom heirloom
Trapped in a light beam
The memory is a ghost

What have I become?
I’ll never accept the monster, you know

Reach out
And pull me in
Could it be
I am everything I can never be?
