It's just poetry. Photo:Drakesh.org

Staring through the looking glass What has become of us, alas Silly nuzzles, warm embrace Now just tears upon my face Oh wicked glass deny my pain The agony I cannot feign For lost in seasons gone before The fading light, a closing door My heart dissolves in cloaked despair I wonder when, I wonder where Will reflections lead into the night To guide the soul away from light And pay the price for love’s trespass For staring through the looking glass Copyright 2009 Patrick Granfors

This one reminds me of Lewis Carrol's "Alice through the looking glass" but with and added quality, the serene sadness and the shy tears. That glass should be a smoked one, to hide the sorrow.
Well done my friend.
