    Fragile is the mirror​
    Our psyche hides behind
    Reflecting our delusions
    From fear of what we find

    Still we are just the child
    Shaken and alone
    When brought out in the open
    Outside our comfort zone

    Confusion is a constant
    The measure of all things
    With the flooding of emotions
    Our shattered mirror brings

    Things that lay hidden
    In recesses of the mind
    Come out to rule the moment
    Future thoughts aside

    Lashing out at loved ones
    Meaning no offense
    Sharpness of the tongue
    A spiritual defense

    Sweeping up the pieces
    Saving every one
    Rebuilding our delusions
    A battle yet begun

    Puzzling the pieces
    From the many shards
    Glue of understanding
    Reducing many scars

    Buffing it with love
    Makes it shinny new
    To find that little child
    You’d need a jeweler's view

    When it’s all together
    We say that we have grown
    Our mirror shining brightly
    With delusions all our own
