Painful Recollections

Shadows in the Mirror


Shadows in the mirror
Ghostly figures in my mind
Images on the windowpane
Memories of a time gone by


Is that you, with the sunlight
Setting your hair aglow?
I can almost feel your heartbeat,
See the shining of your soul.


Shifting wisps of fading hopes
Elusive as the campfire's smoke
Torturing my aching heart,
Slipping past my reaching hands


They're just shadows in the mirror
Ghostly figures in my mind
Images on the windowpane
Memories of a time gone by.
