Reflection

Alan R

You can never see a full reflection

If it's not a mirror in the right direction 

 

In a lake, something gets lost midway 

The waves take some pictures away

 

And the building glass, oh it just shines!

A misleading design, by the humankind 

 

In people's eyes, you'll probably find

Your own reflection, all modified 

 

So life and death, are at an intersection 

And then you go looking for a resurrection 

 

So take that mirror, and all it's answers 

Nothing else here, has a clear consensus.

    Your poem captures the elusive dance of self-perception brilliantly! It's like a whirlwind tour through the maze of mirrors, where truth and illusion intertwine. Keep shedding light on life's enigmas!

    Thanks for reading...and for your kind words...😊

    Don't know if I am shedding light on the enigma or shedding life away for the enigma...but I guess this is happening

    • Cloie

      You're welcome! Your words definitely shed light on the complexities of the enigma.

        So many mirrors reflecting your inner self, that I was not aware of. Nice poetry!
