i just felt a sudden spurt of enthusiasm to post this... it's kinda long i know.
MIRROR
in an attic of dust i found a mirror
that reflected nothing of me
but as i gazed in to its image
it showed a world of what to be
so i held the mirror to my eyes
to discover more of what's inside
it pulled me through its world
and took me in its hide
a place where to discuss a flower
is to shed tears that blossom a garden
in which youth is spent on living
to gain old age its wisdom
since the mirror could not be owned
i let go and watch it disappear
in to the sky where it learned life
and returned, it seemed after years
to a window at once it led me
to view the world that we both know
and depart from the image we see
and fly through circles of gold
to where flesh combines with fruit
of an apple we share together
where flames don't dance for heat
but live to burn for better
and of what is important to me
is not a reflection of gone
but of this which is shown today
from which birds deliver their song
and to this mirror i give my life
to be filled with drops of dew
from leaves of countless virtues
planted and reflectd as you
in a place that has no time
in which we live forever
where two mirrors face each other
and share a world of dreams together

Mmm, just WOW!
which is this case mean, fear not, that I was very very impressed with it.
not too many things manage to give me that kind of chills, mostly singers with amazing voices.
very good work yieldjames, and not too long at all.
thank you for sharing!
I liked this part as well
And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key
