The battle fought before the mirror
Insight beyond the surface clearer
The part of me that is most well
The part yet found down deeper dwell

The wonders shine so soft in him
Inside the strength, beyond the grin
The part of him that he trusts most
The part yet seen that I hold close

The bridges built the bridges burned
In less be more, and more concerned
The part of him shines bright in me
The part unique of two we see

The wishes gifted on silver plate
In spirits lifted of grand estate
The part of me he opens sweet
The part of him that I complete

It is an inner struggle
to admit, with confidence,
who is whom
and who wears the face.

Amazing write, TD. Full of depth and originality.

I so enjoyed this -

'The wishes gifted on silver plate
In spirits lifted of grand estate
The part of me he opens sweet
The part of him that I complete'

Just beautiful poetic thoughts of the heart~
