In the reflection of the mirror
A template of my features
Is looking back at me
She is in tears with red swollen eyes
She looks at me with weakness in her soul
Her vulnerabilities exposed in the open cold
Her fears, uncontrolled, raging like demons
Consume her from within, her heart eaten alive
The anguishing pain, so painful, so painful it hurts
She holds her breath, trying not to breathe
So that the pain no longer hurts, the recurring nightmares stopping to exist
In her reflection, she sees me.
Through the mirror, I have no fear in my eyes
I paint my lips red, in preparation of the night
I put on exquiste jewelry to match my black dress
I strap my stiletto heels to my ankles
Ready for the dance floor
Because tonight, there is only one queen
And the world is ready for her to conquer.
In the game of chess, the queen protects her king
There is no one else, except You and I
In this mirage of white and grey
I see beauty in your imperfections
Your life-force, addictive to kiss
I caress the scars from war on your skin
Your soul merging into mine
A bite… that is all it takes
To express my love for you
Join me… and you will be immortal.
