Eye to eye



EYE TO EYE
 ===========
 Your mirror is spirit of fire
 Tells your actual buyer
 your mind wants to hire
 To know the truth and never lie
 When you are in doubt
 Then look into the mirror eye to eye

 Mirror on your sink
 Advise you never blink
 Face the absolute truth
 Hold fast your actual link
 When blind alley convince you to think
 Then look into the mirror eye to eye

 Wild and strange are garland of desire
 Sound of home we always admire
 Compass-Light guides your path
 Pole star really does inspire
 When Rattle of culture questions why ?
 Then look into the mirror eye to eye

 Your mirror gives you a real reply
 Don't depend on others but rely
 On your Self mirror eye to eye !
