Two-Way Mirror

I've underrated the irreversible

I was prolonging the inevitable

I wish I could

Take comfort in

The irony

If only I

Could defy the laws

Of gravity

Save me from the water in my lungs

Save me from the fire in my gut

I’m the sole-creator

Of every path that I have ever taken

I’m peering through the two-way mirror

I’m switching off the lights

I’ve opened the door of abomination

There is no escape, just a simulation

How could I refuse such a proposition?

A vagabond

Invites me

To call a truce

My attention drifts

To CCTV

In a cell-like room

I’m the sole-creator

Of every path that I have ever taken

Pressed against the two-way mirror

I’m switching off the lights

I’ve opened the door of abomination

Save me from the water in my lungs

Save me from the fire in my gut
