Time to reflect
In the depths of my reflection true,
A mirror holds the secrets I pursue,
A portal to a world unknown, unseen,
Where echoes of myself reside, serene.
With gentle touch against the glass I press,
The image shimmers, causing me to guess.
Oh, mirror of myself, reveal to me,
The hidden facets of my identity,
Unveil the depths that lie beneath the surface,
And show the truth, devoid of any purpose.
Like a kaleidoscope, the colors dance,
Each fragment tells a story and dreams begin their trance.
With every slant ,a new perspective shines,
Reflecting strengths and flaws within these lines,
Within your glass, a symphony of thought,
A tapestry of emotions finely wrought,
The reflection stares back, a resilient gaze,
And weary lines that time cannot erase.
There's kindness in the creases of my eyes,
And wisdom born of years, a priceless prize.
But shadows lurk behind this mirrored veil,
Whispering doubts and fears that tend to pale,
Yet through the mist, a spark of hope unfolds,
Renewing strength, as boundless as it molds.
Oh, mirror of myself, with every glance,
You teach me how to love, to take a chance,
To embrace imperfection, to find grace,
And bravely journey towards my chosen pace.
For in your reflection, I finally see,
The mirror of myself - both you and me.
