the unknown realm of insanity

0 posted 2002-11-19 08:22 PM



The one in the mirror,
Who stares back in hate.
Knows all your secrets,
And will spill them at every chance.
When They smile,
You see something fake.
Is it the reality of it all,
Or is it that you’re in doubt of it all.
Hard to tell,
The answer is in you.
When it seems like things are as bad as they can get worse.
That person proves you wrong.
The inner beauty of yourself,
Can make up for your problems.
A heart that knows wrong from right,
Is the kind you’re thankful to have.
A strong personality,
The person in your mirror tells you.
Even though deep inside,
They’re waiting for you to turn your back.
They are watching,
Your every move.
You want to run away from what you see,
Fear that ashamed they’ll be.
But wait,
A sworn promise that they not tell.
Deep emotion that happened in your room,
Right in front of them.
They say that you are too young,
But they don’t understand.
It will always be this way,
Until you choose to change it…
Will you stand up to the person in your mirror,
Deep inside it is you.
Will you ever have the chance to meet again?

I like this, especially the lines
"Is it the reality of it all,
Or is it that you’re in doubt of it all."
The whole idea behind this is thought-provoking. Good write, I hope to see more from you in the near future.

The place just beyond my eyes, where my spirit flies.

I often wonder about that person in the mirror. What he thinks and knows about me.
I liked the whole idea of battling your image in the mirror even though it is really yourself. It was very original and thaught provoking.

The person in the mirror..ugh...if only she wouldnt stare back at me like she does...this was a very good poem...thanks for sharing this with us

Standing on the edge of the world
Now I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
