Analysis of Mirrored

Veronique Walker 1988 (Miami, FL)



Looking at you, I see me
Looking at me,reflecting you
I am your past, you are my present living in correctness
I am dimming, you are brightening like lightning
You have attained the knowledge I gained
In such it shall continue to grow
Ascend in growth my Love for it has Power
In Spirit, Emotion, Physical, and Mind
Whoa! Dear child , don't let this scare you
For it is only to prepare you
Looking at me reflecting you
Looking at you I see me
My light is dimming as I am ending
Like lightening, you're Brightening
As for you it's anew beginning.
