Mirror

A poem I wrote about becoming aware of the person in the mirror.

The heart sees
The mind knows
The image is clear
Well-known, the likeness is shown

Dawn broke on the looking glass
Then it dawned on me
Broke ambiguity,
The up-in-the-air fixation

Glancing at the mirror for a second
I heard my sense of self fall to the floor
My nose, my proud nose
Became level with truth
The unjust balance lost its footing

I bet your vision is surreal
With your eyes off the mirror

The image is clear
Too clear
Reflections of mind and soul
Likeness is shown
