Tears in the Mirror

She was old but she had an answer for everything
I was curious
And my questions where endless
But she was never tired of replying

When the sun dies in horizon
She lights up the lantern
And unfolds the stories

Everyone in the stories stayed young
But she got older day by day
Death was mystery
She said
When we die we all fade behind the mirrors

One day she was silent
She was covered with white cloth and candles around her
The flowers were pale like people’s faces

I wasn’t sad
I knew where to find her
I took mirror in my hand
All I could see was my glittering tears
