Mirror (English)

235 15 2
                                    

and that's how I knew
the day when your eyes were no longer a mirror
but a window instead
I could no longer see myself in them
I could see that you were looking at something- someone else
and it wasn't me
the reflection of me was gone
like an empty frame
the sad thing is that
my eyes are still a mirror
and I don't know when
if ever
they'll turn into a window too
