    RELECTION
    WHEN I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
    WHAT IS IT THAT I SEE
    FOOLED BY YOUR DISGUISE
    THE WAY YOU USED TO BE

    ARE YOU SOMEONE I ONCE KNEW
    THOUGH IT WAS MANY YEARS AGO
    SOMEONE JUST LIKE YOU
    SOMEONE I USED TO KNOW

    THE FACE I NOW LOOK UPON
    WITH THAT BLANK & EMPTY STARE
    TO WHOM DOES IT BELONG?
    JUST WHO IS STANDING THERE?

    WHEN I LOOK INTO THOSE EYES
    WHO IS IT THAT I SEE?
    I GUESS IT'S TIME TO REALIZE
    THE PERSON THERE IS ME.

    thanks for reading my poem, & letting me know what ya think.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
