The Mirror by
Shane Allen Reynolds
He looks into the mirror and sees A stranger there! No longer the young man he used to be!
He sees a scarred up man with beaten and dented armor and a tarnished sword!
He sees a life of near constant battles some won some lost!
He sees a past of smiles just there to cover the pain! His Depression he hides!
He reaches for a future that he hopes to have! It vanishes before him as if it is illusion!
His dreams he feels will never be real! With this realization he must deal!
He wishes he could smash the mirror and unsee what he saw!
Only to realize This mirror is not real though it is with in us all!
It is called self perception and though we fight it!
Some win and some lose! The battle to change it is endless and tiring!
The energy needed to fight it is all but expiring!
The mirror stands before him cold and mocking!
His reflection stares back at him so sad and shocking!
The image fades as he closes his eyes! As he strikes out at the sight he denies!
He awakes from his slumber to find it a dream!
Only to discover A shard of the mirror laying next to him!
