Reflection

When I look into a mirror, all I see is sadness,
all I see is the melancholic expression on my face,
all I see is the face of a terribly scarred boy,
all I see, is the pain endured over a lifetime of sorrow.

When I dig back into the memories of when I was happy, I smile no longer,
when I try to cry tears of joy, all that pours out is the sadness and self-hatred,
when I try and be happy, all that comes is loneliness and anguish,
when I remember all that has happened, I remember the part of me that died.

How my past has changed me, I’ll never forget,
how I was betrayed, by the one I called my love,
how I was left abandoned, by the thing called happiness,
how I once felt 9 years ago, I’ll always remember.

For the decisions I’ve made, I will hate myself forevermore,
for the friends I pushed away, I will never forgive myself,
for how many years I was happy, I cherish them,
for how much time I will be the way I am, I’ll never know.

Blood stains a five year old's eyes. Who sits there and watches as his mother stabs is his father.
One body hits the floor.
Who was there when he first saw a person die?
Rape happened twice right before Who's eyes. Twice he hid in cowardess.
You speak of unforgiveness. But Who saw 15 people die before the age of ten?
Who watched as you wrote a poem about heart break from a thinly veiled window pain that lacks.
Who did. Who is Who? I am.


In un poetic forms: Dont blur your pain with ambiguity. If you cant talk about the honest life truths that led you to your conclusions, use Who instead of personal pronouns. It makes life easier and your poem have more substance.

And yes all that above is true. Gotta love North Philly.

Did you base this off your feelings or was it just something you came up with?
I based it off of how I felt, and actual experience. It was an idea I got when looking at a thread, and when I considered putting those feelings to paper, I did it and saw how it would go. It was good enough, so I just stuck it on here, for people to read.
