You will find no reflection here
Once you unfix your gaze
And look past these darkened irises
Into the abyssal pools they frame
I don’t blame you if you turn away
I’ve done it much of my life
To sip from this endless void
Is to drown
In being whole
I spend these years
Dropping through this mirror
Of my making
Still wishing I could draw in
A wisp of the ebbing earth’s air
Find some way to walk in this world
Like I was born into it
Yet this mortal flesh is just a breath
Of what I truly am
To drown here
Is just to return to myself
