i stare into the mirror
as my reflection stares out
at me
it is just my inverted image
but what am i to it
i know the type of man i am
however, what type of man is he
does it believe the opposite
of all the things i believe
or would that be the reverse
oh, such an amusing
complicated reverie
my right hand rest upon the glass
his left rests the same
aligned with my right
shouldn't there be some separation
a line of demarcation
it seems there's only the glass
that separates the two
but then how can it be merely a reflection
an inverted image of me or you
when i smile
it smiles
a frown, too, is reciprocated
but shouldn't it's smile
be my frown
and his frown my smile
unless it's NOT my opposite
my inversion
my reverse
i stare into the looking glass
but what is it
that stares back at me
Please tell me what you think

mirror, mirror
made sense to me why it should be actually said twice...the reflection creating two alike images...or the question if that reflection truly reveal of who we are inside.
it's very inevitable not to perceive those thoughts when you look at the mirror...
this is very deep
makes me wonder too
behind that glass reflection...is it real? me or the other and who is real then?
