Mirrored Eyes That Look For No One

Breakfast table, 12 noon,
Oddly comfortable silence,
Bowl of cereal, one spoon,
Maybe I am supposed to mind this.

Mirror image, sea green eyes,
She's strange company.
Felt almost too natural to break—
Something doesn't feel right,
But maybe it's just me.

No real sense of time,
Lace my fingers with mine;
Empty spaces so cold in between.

Can't fool my brain into believing—
Can't pretend it's like the real thing.

Not that I could remind myself, anyway.

I'll be 100% honest and say— I don't like this poem. I thought I'd post it anyway. If anything, it'll be good for improvement and I can always change it. Suggestions welcome! Xxx
