I was walking down the stairs
And I fell through the 5th step
Only to come to a world
Uncanny
I saw a replica of myself
Bleeding at the palms
But there was no expression
Of Pain
There are mirrors on the fortress
An assemblage of books
I picked one up
And the pages flipped by themselves
The story came out
Unto a nearby mirror
But for my eyes.
It was bent gibberish
I went to a piece of wall
With no mirror covering
And touched it with my bleeding palm
I was a beautiful girl
But my eyes were made of glass
Pure, sheer glass
And I knew why my palms bled
My eyes
Were wet
And my face
Was clammy
And my hands Had been cut
By my wet
Clammy faced eyes
I was so unhappy
I was surreal
I had no future
No past
No present
Only bleeding palms
And mirrors
That shined on those glass eyes
I closed my real eyes
For a milli-second
And I was back on the stairs
Sitting down
On that first step
And I realized
I had an epiphany
My palms were not bleeding
I was not un-pretty
I was the daughter
Of God himself Because I saw
My post-destiny
Through his eyes
Alone
