2. mirrors and portals
When people look into
my eyes
they don’t see me,
they see themselves
through me
as me
experiencing you
I’m a mirror to you
but to me
Your souls enter mine
in order to
See themselves
through my sight of them
Feel themselves
through my feelings of them
Understand themselves
through my understanding of them
You see my light
and want to consume it
But my darkness is too consuming
You enter thinking you‘ll drink from it
Instead you are swallowed.
