I looked in the mirror and I saw something strange,
The reflection of a ghost, that was me- But both were the same.
I stared for a moment- Then I began to ask his name,
He was mimicking my actions but something wasn't the same.
The room just felt different- Like something wasn't right,
I was viewing it with my eyes- But with a different kind of sight.
The room was filled with steam from the water that was running,
But the mirror wasn't foggy- Almost like it was telling me something.
I felt nothing else around me- I just stared into his eyes,
The craziness in my head ceased as I became mesmorized.
Never glancing off- Just concentrating on the reflection,
But it was so much more than that- I suddenly felt protected.
I almost felt as though he was telling me everything would be O.K,
But never saying a word- But I understood what he was trying to say.
I snapped out of my mesmerization- As the reflection became mine again,
I still think of that night- As being a sign from him.
Telling me that it'll be alright- That he'll protect me from danger,
Staring into his eyes, without saying a word- I had a conversation with an angel.
