The Broken Mirror
Reflecting on a truth
A half truth of that
Nothing to be taken
Nothing taken back
The shattered pieces
Each reflect some light
But everyone who takes them
Is bound to start a fight
The pieces, a dangerous weapon
The wearers most sincere
To think their piece is most important
Though in war, turns their gears
What is it they see
How can I tell
When I only have a piece held by me
And in it I see a cell
To some they speak of water
Another speaks of blood
One speaks a name
The other denies their God
They with all their pieces
They in one accord
They who love their savior
But refuse to hear his word
The mirror a mere reflection
A reflection of his word
But each holder has construed them
To control the very world
So let the mirror be mended
Let the mirror be fixed
Let every living being
Find a lasting worthiness
