The Beauty In the Mirror

In this reflective stare Mind numbing thoughts Of what is now Of what once was. Years gone by With a blink of an eye Torn between Here and there To learn to go forward One must learn to fall back. Chasing dreams Lines framing time Chasing rainbows With no end in sight Chasing butterflies Fantasies delight

Wonderful poem. :) This is why we, as women, must cling to Proverbs 31:30: "Charm is deceitful and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord, she is to be praised." Blessings! ~Rachel
