'emotional Roller Coaster'

emotional big dipper
going up and then
   speeding down
my mind is in a spin
   how did I get here?

I don’t like the face staring back at me
   so cheerless
hazel eyes without their shine

a broken mirror
  dissimilar views
in between the heartache
  and expectant dreams

Sometimes I look in the mirror and wonder who I am, Wilma. So often our emotions are conflicting. Hope you are doing well, dear. Would hate to think of you feeling like you're staring into a broken mirror that's creating stress in your life. Love, Carolyn
