Reflection

Staring in the mirror, looking back at me
Extension of myself, yearning to be free
What I want I cannot have
But what I want is mine
I have what I should not take
They are a reflection of myself
Staring in the mirror, looking back at me
Extension of myself, yearning to be free
Mirror nods pleasingly, I want to always agree
Passion governs me, it’s all I want to see
I have what I should not want
I’m partaking in a form of me
It’s what I feel I need
My reflection is truly mine
Mirror nods pleasingly, I want to always agree
Passion governs me, it’s all I want to see
You can call me vain, I’m as happy as can be
My reflection is as me, carefree and merry
I trade what I should desire
I give it up for eros
My desire burns for it
It’s all just about love
You can call me vain, I’m as happy as can be
My reflection is as me, carefree and merry

From that time Jesus began to preach and say:
“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
— Matthew 4:17

Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ,
as though God were making an appeal through us;
we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
— 2 Corinthians 5:20

Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance,
God is now declaring to men that all people everywhere
should repent, because He has fixed a day in which He will
judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom
He has appointed, having furnished proof to all men
by raising Him from the dead.
— Acts 17:30-31
