REFLECTION
I Look in the window and see my reflection
It stares back in silent contemplation
I focus on the eyes, plumbing the depths
seeking the soul.
I fear for what I might find there
will it be terrible to behold?
will I even understand it
or be left only in the cold?
Still I probe with an anticipation
my heart wanders to a race
as my forehead finds perspiration
that makes its way to my face
Lost, I find me
swimming in the depths
my soul surrounds me
In a pool of my thoughts, life and death
A sound breaks
the silence sending my eyes running
shattering the depths of the pool
and my Soul recedes within
to find the pale white moon.
