Shattered in Time


Mirror mirror on the wall,

Please tell me why I fall

Fall down the dark, dank corridor,

The corridor of life.

 

Mirror mirror on the wall,

tell me how not to fall,

to not hit the walls,

to not fall off the ball.

 

And so to you,

My mirror on the wall,

It was you falling though the hall,not I,

Not of life but of time.

 

You fall down this hall,

Slowly floating though time,

Until you fall like a dime

Shattered in the halls of time.

For it is not I that fell but you

Shattered forever in time.
