Reality


A pane of glass

Not magic

No being in the other side

Just glass

.

Easily explained

Alien

hint of another world

Just like our own

Or close

.

Close enough we'd never know

Never know if we slip through

Changing places as we touch the mirror

Entering a new world

.

The world does not exist

There is only me

Only me

staring at a pane of glass

Dreaming

How dull is my existence

Do I exist?

Am I but a reflection?

.

My reflection is not real

If I be a reflection of my reflection

Am I real?

.

Too many thoughts

Too much for a pane of glass

I am not real

Reflection is not real

We have no concept of reality.
