Reflections

Contributed by darkscorpio on Saturday, 8th February 2003 @ 04:45:10 AM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems



When I looked in the mirror, I saw reflections of my life
The scars from long ago are healed, my mind clear of loves knife
My eyes still show a war torn past, but a twinkle shows through clear
No longer solemn, the wounds bleed wisdom, theres not a look of fear
After the tears and up from the ashes, stability has entered my mind
Its not from a woman and its not from my friends
I cut off dependency, insecurity ends
Sometimes I get lonely, but Id rather be alone than be in pain
Sometimes I get frightened, I know the fear will last but not remain
Im never overconfident, I have a grasp of what I want
Keeping myself level headed, not letting old memories haunt
I look in the mirror, and I see a true smile
Which has evaded me for years, which I hope stays awhile
I think Ive seen my very soul, as my reflection looked through me
With the gateway to success in sight first timeI caught a glimpse of the key
