Let It Fall
Maybe it's not such a shame
That you can't see my face;
That my twisted auburn locks
Sweep softly like a mask,
Obscuring inquiring eyes.
It's a two-way mirror,
Crafted of my own genetic code;
I can see your sparkling amber eyes
Filled with laughter and mischievous glee,
But you cannot see my own hazel windows
Into my soul,
Only glinting with liquid pain.
Let it fall.
Let it fall.
My windows crack
Under building pressure,
Releasing the crystals onto the Earth.
As soon as they crack;
They are repaired.
I'm just fine.
If I say it enough,
Maybe,
Someday it'll come true.
