Self Reflection Poems - Poems about Self Reflection

They asked for a piece of my mind— so I offered silence, wrapped in gold. No rage, no clamor, no thunderclap, just breath unbroken when the world turned cold. Peace of mind isn't a destination, but a pact with storms I’ve learned to outlast. Not the absence of chaos—but grace, in the moments I choose not to cast judgment, holding fast. It's the...

Sitting under a full moon I begin to think I think about how lucky the moon is Sitting high in the midnight sky Not a worry in the world I think about what it would be like to be the moon I light up the night sky To emit my glow and energy upon the world Lighting the way for those seeking home Then,...

I am the writer, reader, and spectator. Lying down in your arms, my eyes wander. Just look into your eyes in quiet solitude; My tears say all in this interlude. My small victories—chess and writings, My journeys to places where I chased my cravings. You see it all and understand without judging, Like the few who backed me and keep me hoping. I...

Doe In My Yard I glimpsed out my bedroom window looking for nature's signs giving me clues about what today will bring. A lone doe was nibbling on the southern lawn grass. She slowly raised her head, vulnerably held still for about 10 seconds, and resumed nibbling the grass. Her movement was graceful and relaxed. She stood...

This place where I sit so unfamiliar to me this is not what I had imagined not what I expected this is not the path I was walking on must have slipped through a wormhole a mysterious splice in time and materialized stumbling on the other side or, somehow swept up into a tornado drifted on the blustery wind spat out viciously, just like Jonah to this...

I look in the mirror, I see the defects of my soul, Shadowed by the flaws of my heart. Am I blocking the path of light that I see in my shadow's front? Do rumors define me, or can I break free? From the burdens of doubt, or is it the weight in me? In the darkness of the night,...

What’s stopping you From being the person Who you want to be In this crazy world That we all live in? What’s stopping you From reaching the mountain top To complete every goal That you have? What’s stopping you From living your best life? What’s stopping you? What’s stopping you? What’s stopping you? What’s stopping you From being creative Through art? What’s stopping you From being creative Through music? What’s stopping you from being creative through textiles? What’s...

She wondered, entering the sea, in fierce relentless rain, As the waves crashed hard against the rocks, would she see the sun again? Her life was dark now,like the sky that loomed a murky grey, Her body breathing in the air, as her legs, start to give way. Her head’s a torrid mass of thoughts, her heartbeat racing fast, With terror...

Solitude a reliable friend, one that accompanies me to the world's end. He's quiet and shy, hidden away from others appearing only when I am alone, in the depths of the night. When I am left with just my thoughts, it comes and finds me, to support as i lay there on those silent evenings, deep in contemplation. He helps me clear my mind. In his embrace...

I look around this life astounds transformational in many ways. I sing a song with the words all wrong my poor hearing is the reason why. I must confess to my love of breasts those of the winged and of my bride. Upon reflection I've faced rejection but not because I didn't try. Sometimes I ponder my mind does wander exactly what are the reasons why. Did I mention the implied intention was to assess just who...

The Junkie How skillful yet your monstrous face, that hides your love and gayer part from all who dares to try embrace with tender care and open heart. In solitude you live this life, this burden self-denial’s hate; that chose you as companion’s strife remembrance of a happier state you laugh inside yet snide and bark to every soul that cross your way your voice an...

In the silence of night, the soul stirs deep, In shadows where hidden reflections sleep. A man sits alone with thoughts that ache, Unraveling truths that the daylight forsake. Who am I? he asks in the hush of the dark, A flicker of wisdom, a soft, quiet spark. Through stars above and the stillness near, He confronts his flaws, his doubts, his...

I need a room of mirrors bright, To be surrounded by the light, Of winners gleaming all around, Their silent wisdom so profound. I do my crying in the rain, So heaven’s tears can hide my pain. For men like us will walk alone, Satan feared I'd carve my throne. In this age of looks, I still fall deep, For vibes that stir me...

I see you, in the quiet moments, when the world fades to a whisper and it’s just you, breathing in the calm of your own presence. You’ve walked through storms, held your ground in the wind, even when your knees shook and your heart...
