The Mirror

I once took a walk
When not so long ago
In a history not far
It showed itself to me

It bowed
To my amusement it did
It spoke of an invitation
I simply couldn't refuse

"Come and take a look,
Wonder your thirst...
I see what you see,
Do not be alarmed, do not be lost" 

I have come across a mirror
Not entirely your typical vision
Though it comes with a secret
The message isn't really hidden

This is an intriguing way to have an epiphany ... a burst of self-confidence from you yourself. Cool poem, Sarah. I enjoyed it's subtle wisdom.
