REFLECT

Reflection Describes how one is seen Shows your opposite gene, In the light of day, I see the smiles Spreading around, bring it for a while. Ends up, we all fake it, it seems It was a reflection of what the world wanted to be seen Interchangeable we grief Leaving the past a mirror of our relief With every step on this winding road, I shed my burdens, I lighten the load. Through valleys deep and mountains tall, My heart beats louder, I dare to call. All in all, The one reflection was a darkened recall to the unreal Yarkand Far from all, I placed the mirror and What lies ahead, a mystery veiled, In fragile hopes, my heart is sailed. With every beat, my heart reveals, The essence of what deeply feels With every turn, a lesson learned, Embracing each flame, my spirit burned Describes how one is seen Shows your opposite gene, In others’ eyes, a glimpse of me, Together, we find what it means to be free. All in all The one reflection was a darker me

This is beautiful the rhyme is well thought out. i also like the stanza "with every beat, my heart reveals the essence of what it deeply feels with every turn a lesson learned embracing each flame my spirit is burned" its like your saying that your heart has had many loves but they always end the same with you hurting its a good thing our soul is forever we can keep loving or at least trying to love thanks for this poem
