We assume that a mirror only reflects
images on which the eyes can dwell
but how do we know that it doesn't also
give off other reflections as well
Perhaps the blind girl in front of the mirror
instead of 'seeing' nothing as it would seem
is actually having her true beauty reflected
into her heart and soul, directly, scene by scene

Beautiful!
This is a perceptive and beautiful reflective poem, very soulful writing that really speaks to me. I like the way you didn't over-explain yourself, leaving the theory open to suggestion and interpreataion.
Thanks for the reflection on my reflection!

nice wording! I have a poem called "Reflections of me" But it's not as good as this. Your right, Mirrors can tell us more then we can think, and sometimes, that image is good, sometimes it's bad.
