Mirror image of a mirror (Silver screen)

Face me! Turn around.
I face myself
Into a mirror,
And into a mirror world;

Into a universe
So close –
So far away.
Almost insane…

Where I am myself
Yet microns away
From the “real world”
Everything’s perfect. 
You know…

Under the surface
Of this old, cracked
Silver screen
I reach and I touch - you.

Blood there, under the surface, 
Is fake.
I am an actor there, 
You’re acting too.

When this movie’s over,
Another one will begin.

No one really gets old,
No one really cries,
No one really dies…

Everyone stays at the table, 
Forever young.
