And I am uncertain
with the stained revelation
hidden in my reflected gaze
I look up into the maze of hearts,
touching with fingertips
that which will never be offered
I stand in the seasons with realization
that streaked crevices of loving lies
taint my skin with opened scars
The looking glass I have created
with retinas hidden behind the veil
of a smile left to the world's escape
While I trace the mounting loss of feeling
within the depths of my own categorized soul,
I close my eyes and whisper thoughts through ages,
and hear words deafened within me; taking me whole

I can hardly describe how I feel about this poem, it blew me away! The dictionary might say something like...no longer found or whatever but this IS the real definition. Great job

I read it three times, its a wonderful write,
"The looking glass I have created
with retinas hidden behind the veil
of a smile left to the world's escape"
You have a gift my friend, and a special one at that.

I really like the flow of this poem it was awesome. Totally deep! "I stand in the seasons with realization" I really like this line. It is like finding yourself. I love it. "The looking glass I have created" That was created is cool. It could be taken several ways. One side is we do create our own lives, it is our choice, whether we make it hard or not. What I am trying to say is that we as people can make ourselves feel really bad about ourselves. But we can also make ourselves closed up in to our own created bubble. Anyways maybe I am taking it wrong. This is just my opinion! In Love & Light... ♥ ~~Iridessa MoonFlower~~
