My Spirit and the Mirror
10/12/06

Time—has no meaning anymore.
Whether it passes quickly or drags on,
It brushes by me to fall onto someone else.
Always within my reach, but coming up just shy of
My fingertips. With nothing holding me back or down,
I find my nights of sleep cloudy and dreamless,
But with the same whispers… of a mirror… and my spirit.
“Let me out,” she says, and I ask her how.
She doesn’t answer, but I find my mirror on the opposite
Wall, facing away from my bed when I wake.
I think nothing of it, until I feel something touch my shoulder.
I turn and see the clock—it’s the middle of the night,
and the ticking seems to drone out everything else as I walk towards it.
I watch the hands move while a heavy weight falls on my
shoulders—time.
