Fragile is the mirror our psyche hides behind Reflecting our delusions from fear of what we find We are still the child shaken and alone When brought out in the open outside our comfort zone Confusion is a constant the measure of all things With the flooding of emotions our shattered mirror brings Things that lay hidden in the recesses of the mind Come out to rule the moment future thoughts aside Lashing out at loved ones meaning no offense A sharpness of the tongue a spiritual defense Saying many things we rapidly regret Slipping even further praying you forget Sweeping up the pieces saving every one Rebuilding our delusions a battle yet begun Puzzling the pieces from the many shards Glue of understanding reducing many scars Buffing it with love makes it shinny new To find that little child you'd need a jewelers view When it's all together we find we have grown Our mirror shining brightly with mirages of our own Author Mr»ÄlleÿÇät copyright © Ed Schmidt 2002 |

This needs to be read..so I'm putting where it WILL be read again. Loved it or I wouldn't bump it. I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement. |
