Fall

Mirror mirror on the wall, 

Was I always meant to fall? 

Roses white, and dying light, 

Silver’s sweet forgiving bite,

She'll ask “why?” 

No answers found, 

And I'll rot deep 

Beneath the ground. 

For the only kingdom waiting for me, 

When I fall to eternal sleep, 

Is two feet wide, 

And six feet deep.

Mirrors

are an excellent metaphor for asking profound questions. Well constructed rhyme and content - a view shared by many. When you're dead, that's it. i'm holding out for heaven; something other. - slc
