Deeper
Your glassy surface
Bluntly paints
A picture of the obvious
Bitten Lips
Bulging waistline
Bandaged legs
Yet if I were to throw
A challenge like no other
To pick up your brushes
And paint me much more
Lips that have sung sweeter
Than the golden birds above
A stomach that hungers for
Daring adventures
Minds that travel kingdoms
Faster than the quickest legs
And yet you give up
Same picture again
Countenance as shallow
As skimmed water
O Mirror! I pity your dread and dismay
For not diving into the waters
Of a persons soul
Deeper
