The Mirror-Eyed Boy
with a heart of pure gold
was so sweet and innocent --
or so we were told.

The story begins
in a fairly large town.
The boy had entered
and gazed all around.

His mirror eyes fell
on a girl in the shadows.
Her skin was all glass
and her hair black as crows.

They soon fell in love
but another boy came
This man could fly
and this started the game.

The Mirror-Eyed Boy
soon wanted the truth.
Was her love real?
Or a game for her youth?

She fled and she hid
but soon was returned.
She finally chose
and the sad truth was learned.

The Radiant Girl
knew the glass one's fear.
She whispered to the boy,
"Is everything clear?"

So the Mirror-Eyed Boy
called on the birds.
When she was attacked
she had no last words.

She broke into pieces
and the black birds scattered.
His mirror eyes gleamed
as the Glass Girl was shattered.

The man who could fly
was so very furious!
He marched to the boy
and he seemed so curious...

The man in his anger
attacked the young boy
and took out his heart
and his death was enjoyed.

The Mirror-Eyed Boy
with a heart of pure gold
was so sweet and so innocent --
or so we were told...
