Mirrors and Running Faucets

I find my face in the mirror

And wish my mind was clearer

I look away

From clouded blue eyes

That stare back at me

I can’t look in those windows

At the lights that all flicker

This house is flooding

The water just keeps running

I turn the locks

To keep it all enclosed

If it spilled out the door

The ones I love

Would leave me
