THE MIRROR TALKS

Bobby O

THE MIRROR TALKS
How u hold up ur end,Tells all ,what ur about.  I don't know yet how i'm gonna figure my end out.

So I went back, walked thru my minds video of the past, found four frames, hard questions asked, they triggered truth, I own lies that last. Some,  they live in those video's, gave me reasonable doubt, the past ain't gonna show how I'm gonna figure my end out. 

But I got next, next week, next job,next plan's the best. Today stays empty, tomorrow is all. Frozen steps, Future dreams, embracing the stall, Imaginary progress , on some imaginary route, the Future sure won't show how I'm gonna figure my end out. 

The Privledge of time, I thought used to be mine. Climbing up will scare me, but I refuse to stay blind. The mirror talks, baby steps, walk that straight line. Joining life, jumping in, ending this hideout, now , right Now, is the perfect time to figure my end out.

    Figuring out one's end in anything is the hard part but once done everything falls into place. Your first line sets the mood and tone of this poem. Past and future do not exist it is in the third stanza that you find the answer, the present the only thing that one has control over. A concept that I believe completely. Nicely done Bobby

      Enjoyed reading this poem, it is very difficult going through that process and i think some of us never really figure it out.

              A deep self evaluation.These are doubts and disappointments we all have. A thought provoking work

                Thank you. Most that I write are imagined scenarios at best loosely based on my travels through. But this is the one piece that is as true as I could make it and it was cathartic
