Mirror of Secrets

His glass-stained eyes saw things he knew That framed a past when years withdrew From indiscretions of a town--- Mirrored in youth’s flashes, rundown By secrets kept in a house where he loved and grew. Contest for Reflections of A Florette 31 Aug 2014 Jajosh Ongado

"That framed a past when years withdrew" Brilliant!!! And the dilemma then becomes how to keep them from "framing" the future. Well done.
