Someday I’ll Find You
By Jamie Collins
Someday I’ll find you
when the lights have gone out
standing in the dark
behind a mirror
looking back at me
as if you were my reflection
as if I were you
standing in front of a mirror
our eyes locked
on each other
holding on tight
to the memories
we refuse to let go
wandering around in the dark
with no meaning
to anyone but us.

we refuse to let go
wandering around in the dark
with no meaning

Lovely, just lovely.
