In shadowdense glassA thousand shattered faces stareTwistshard reflections of jagged-edged meDeafening, they scream my welcome
The inverse wearing my faces stirsPulling me within a halting breath ofA wall wider than every world that has beenMarking me as--
A dropAnd a gasp andColors slam to vibrancySize crashes to insignificance
Lifetimes creepAnd intermingleRegrets compounded byUseless might-have-beens
Still that gaze beckonsFrom behind unseen cornersA thousand fragmented me(s)Whispering my return
