Reflections

Let me tell you a story
of a girl I once knew.
One who had so much glory
and like a bird she flew.

Let me read you this poem
of all the thoughts in her head.
Maybe then you'll know why
this girl is now dead.

They watch her take flight
all those eyes on her wings.
As she sought out her goals
with all that will-power brings.

They pushed her for more
'til her intentions were blinded.
Now she's fallen to the floor
no longer clear-minded.

I see her twitch and turn
Oh wait, she's not dead.
This girl that has fallen
just spoke to me and said:

"Look in the mirror, eye to eye,
Think to yourself 'It's for me, I fly.'
For I am that girl you are in your head.
I am that girl you thought was dead.

Let's fly again
just me and you.
Without all those people
telling us what to do.  

Let's dry the tears
and clean up this mess.
Let's spread these wings
and fly to our success."

    Oh my God again! Your poems are absolutely wonderful! Man, you have some massive talent to have the creativity and originalty! Sriously, I don't think I've ever read a poem quite like this. I know what you mean, though... about losing the person you once were. It's happened a couple times, right after I find myself again. Awesome poem, like I said.

    Yes, plenty of times. Thats a part of living. You lose yourself, you find yourself. Sometimes someone comes along and helps you but usually you are pretty much on your own.
