Reflection

by @aditya-shankar

My paradise has no mirrors. So that I can brush my teeth everyday Without gazing into the face Of He Who Must Mend His Ways. My paradise has no mirrors. So that I can simmer in my lonely blues Unafraid to lie, not scared if I lose To He Who Makes No Excuse. My paradise has no mirrors. So that I may embrace all my colours in peace Hidden away from the vision so keen Of He Who May Never Be. My paradise has no mirrors My paradise doesn't instill the need For betterment. But despite that (or that's precisely why, maybe) My paradise doesn't have me.
