"Mirror Of Woe"

I see a mirror strangely appear

Upon touching it I disappear

I'm trapped behind the looking glass

Screaming as the body parts pass

Is this some form of magic

Who could be this tragic

How long am I going to stay

I don't want to end up that way

In the corner of my eye

I see a man floating by

As he comes ever so near

I can sense impending fear

He holds my hand, the mirror shakes

We softly kiss, the mirror breaks

I look around and everything's gone

Though in the reflection, I'm the only one

Maybe it was all in my mind

Though an eerie feeling is left behind
