~The reflection still reflects~

~The reflection still reflects~

The cracks in the mirror reflects back,

the cracks in my soul reflect but never look back.

Another day struggling, and trying,

Somedays it would be easy just dieing,

The crack in the mirror never speaks back.

To get my head straight and become whole,

My words flow out of me and lose control.

I look deep into the cracks,

I somehow know she will never be back.

The crack in the mirror takes control.

The snow and the sun reflect back,

As I stare deep into the crack.

I will never know where the crack,

Came from the mirror snaps  back.

The reflection still reflects,

As I am lost into the crack.

The person in the mirror,

Never smiles back.

inkmaster, The format for this poem is quite clever and interesting. I read it aloud and the mirror, its crack, the reflection, the person are all entities of the frustration the poet pens. Quite fascinating. ginga

This is so poetically powerful in that the cracks are metaphors for how out of focus life can be at times. Your poetry has reached another level of brilliance, and for me to be a witness to this growth has been a pleasure.

Cracks in the mirror make it hard to see a clear reflection... sometimes we have to see through the mirror at a image that is unlike the present, so that our future becomes brighter through envisioned self-portraits. Once more your words are strong and your expressions powerful my friend... LIVE with a STRENGTH that you never knew you had - write write and write some more!

thanks Ken lots of soul searching going on....Jeff

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
