Beyond the Mirror

My thoughts travel
through and beyond,
wondering when those feelings
will rise to the occasion.

The passing of time
resonates in loneliness,
leaving one to capture
a reflection in thought.

Still, the warmth of memories
comforts my will
and revives the discipline needed
to cover the scars of the past,

to change false hopes
into dreams of reality,
to leave the old view behind
and begin again to see
that patience is a virtue...

and that beyond the mirror,
there is truth.

I love it when Alice dons her poetic finery and comes to call~

Always a ponder you leave me with~

Guess I should say "how depressing it was to
find how there was nothing on the other side
of that mirror." (That wasn't here already)

   quote:

   ...beyond the mirror,
there is truth.

I think I would have used a different word
here instead of "truth" (maybe "reality") I
don't know. But,,, truth. All I'm saying is,
I've looked beyond, and not found truth.

Did I say I liked it..? You betcha bubba..!

well Dale, compared to what I see in the mirror every day, I know there is more to reality and truth than what I see in front of me

thanks,
