Twin in the Mirror

by OHgreenman   Apr 13, 2009


Reflection glares back
Judging what is seen
Self; under attack
Yet remaining serene

Mortal assult dwells within
Disliking whom I've become
Soul wears an evil grin
Fighting to succumb

Honorable man lives beneath
Finding himself grows nearer
Removing soul from it's sheath
Farewell; twin in the mirror

    So this morning I had this same fight in the mirror when I got out of the shower...I was like damn "what the hell is that and where the hell did it come from" HAHAHA

    I don't mean to make a joke about your poem...it truly is a wonderful piece...and I don't mean my backside...I mean...yea...

    Moving on....truly we all can feel this fight...as I'm sure every human has looked in the mirror and disliked the reflection so sourly looking back at them. I don't see physical troubles though...it's more the way I've lived, the way I've treated people verses the way I know I should be living. It's hard to be a hundred percent, a hundred percent of the time. Before I rant for a decade I'll leave you now. I'll just say this....the mirror can be windexed! :)

    Wow, such deepness here, Greenie. It's sad and beautiful with such a positive tone, I adore it. The meaning is real and not in a mundane way, great job! :)
