Mirrors
Glorious fragments of speculum, which
peer inward
Despite their true meaning,
bare no reflection upon me,
but to thy inner self,
So that I might behold.

Abundant stories told from there,
Which rest upon a tender spirit
and bare witness to stifled tunes
that play alone.

Innocence long lost, found in traces
of paleness, long for revival.
Subdued phrases that speak frequently
to themselves, echo from emptiness.

My affection be your savior
and my love will compose symphonies
that your heart will chant, ever more.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Albert, I know these images all too familiar too, I always dream of my love and still haven't ever got to hold a girls hand and yet the ghost of some love I know no name of always reflects in the prisms of my soul! (sigh) This is lovely, sweet friend, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Albert, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I am glad you all like this piece. Seymour. In that verse, it is me teling her, that though she is saddened and has been hurt, I will lift her up from there and be the one to love her forever and that she will need to know of no other love. I wasn't trying to be narcissistic. But I love seeing how others translate my poetry. To see how it affects another and what conceptions they have of it.
