Lies under the carpet -------------------------------------------
The images didn't reflect
in your eyes
Your face was completely innocent
and so was your voice
I never saw it coming
I guess I forgot
how much of a struggle it was
it never left?
how could I have been so naive
and no matter what you say
"It's not your fault"
I can't help but see my short-comings
That could have led
you down that path again
I'm so sorry if my neglect has caused this
sometimes I lose my head
but I guess the trust we once had
is gone...not like the lies
swept under the carpet
I trusted you...was I wrong too?
It baffles me
how this could have gone on for so long
heh, this one was a bit longer.
as for the mirror aspect, it seems that way in a sense, but this piece gave me the feel of you speaking to a loved one through words, describing a situation that had arisen, and the problem resulting from 'your' negligence as you called it, but then coming to ask yourself was it you who was negligent towards this other person or was it merely the fact that you held so much trust in this person that you were blinded by having let your guard down.
enjoyed this write, hope to hear more from you.
peace
