The Key To The Mind Poem by Bethany Maxwell

You have given me the key to your mind
Oh, how I thought you so kind

I look in the mirror to see your face
As my heart fills with discrace

I see you standing there
As your eyes they stair

I know you are gone
But my heart still sings it's sad song

I know you have left me to be alone
But yet I can still smell your cologne

I see your eyes as they burn into my soul
Making my heart a simmering coal

I know you have betrayed me
yet still the truth I do not see

I loved you as a babe his mother
But you only pretended to be my lover

So now as I look in the mirror I see your eyes
And I look to the skys

I look in the mirror and seemy own tears
That will wash away my fears

For now I look in the mirror and only see me
For I have finally destroyed your key
