Poetry: Looking in the mirror

Man In The Mirror:

The eyes seem bright and stern

Yet display a hint of grief

The smile seems one so peaceful

Yet inside is disbelief

The touch moves soft and smoothly

Yet trembles with every sway

The walk is one so proud

Yet stumbles in much dismay

The kiss is soft and subtle

Yet seems empty at times unsure

The heart is filled with passion

Yet the passion is still impure

The voice is deep and mellow

Yet manipulates at every turn

The mind is one of brilliance

Yet still has much to learn

The soul has been enlightened

Yet refuses to become one

The dreams have all been dreamt

Yet some have not begun

The image is a man of age

Yet a child still dwells within...

...this man in the mirror

    He's always been there hiding
    whenever I took time to see.
    He always seemed to grow

    REFLECTION

    Looking in the mirror
    What is it that I see?
    A girl so shrewd and lonely
    Unrecognizabl e to me

    Her hair is all but limp

    To you I am nothing more than a punching bag
    Though unused you look upon me with fists of fury
    Beating me with your heated
