This mirror of love: A poem 

Did the verdant witch sing you a lullaby to your death? 

Did you think it was sunrise instead of sunset? 

How slow was the slow train that you thought was a jet? 

Could you have conjectured before you placed your bet? 

And did you think your beast of love needed a vet? 

Is a promise to freedom just a fractured outlet? 

Did the dream become the monster causing you to fret? 

We have too many illusions that can only cause distress 

Should I say this love is like a mirror in retrospect 

that shows you that it was deceit in what was reflect?

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
