Jerry Angel - Mirrored Eyes

Sun sets fire to the wrinkled lines on his face
Crow's feet etched by a lifetime's relentless pace
His calloused hands grip the worn-out leather chair
Reflecting a fire that once burned bright, but now seems rare

He sees me in the mirror, a reflection bittersweet
The same stubborn jaw, the same restless wandering feet
All the hopes and dreams he buried deep inside
Live on in the fire burning restless in my eyes

He talks of fields of green, now swallowed by the dust
Of a love that slipped away, leaving only a whisper of trust
His weathered smile hides a lifetime of ache
But there's a flicker of pride when he sees the choices I make

The silence speaks volumes, the unspoken words hang heavy in the air
Generations of stories whispered on a wind that carries both burden and prayer
The weight of his legacy, a torch passed in the fading light
I'll carry the fire of his spirit, even when the future seems dim tonight
