Reflection
Making the noise
That blocks the serenity
It disrupts the peace
Like a vulgar obscenity
It's hard to avoid
And difficult to forget
With constant reminders
It's a serious threat
You push it away
And it closes the gap
Struggle to move
And and it secures it's trap
It's on your mind
And hard to erase
It sneaks up from behind
And looks you in the face
When it sees in your eyes
It's not making an impression
It releases control
And turns over possession
You redirect your focus
No longer feeling shame
And without your attention
It forfeits the game
As it disappears
You know your affection
Defeated the enemy
That was once your reflection
