REFLECTIONS

Cool water
flowing
into my hands
splashing over my
hard callous palms
reaching up to touch
my face.
Gazing into the mirror
seeing eyes
wide open with
lust and love
and imagination
of things yet to be.
Behind me
in the reflection
I see her
lying
drunkenly awaiting me
on the bed,
I wash my face
and stare at a reflection
of my life.

WOW.....powerful reflections...deeply personal and honest poerty.
great emotional work.
take care, jm

 ...when you walked into the room, I saw their faces,
you made it feel like time was standing still...and I felt fascination...
then you turned and smiled in my direction...
and my heart...gave me away.
