Imperfect Mirror [10-09-01]

What are you trying to tell me?
Can I ever understand..
I'm caught in a loop
and through the dark waves
I can see that I'll never see land.

What are you trying to teach me?
Can I ever comprehend..
I'm standing atop
all my anger, and just
before jumping, my fingers extend.

How can I fix my own logic?
It's broken and shattered in twain..
When I stoop to pick up
all the pieces, my heart
sings a song, and it breaks once again.

What do you see when you see me?
Do you see my flesh battered and blue..
Or when you look down
from that cloud,do you see
an imperfect reflection of you..?
