Mirror and its reflection

MIRROR AND ITS REFLECTION

My scattered self, I see, in a crystal mirror,

Reflecting the only emotions I want to show,

Noticing the face on which it appears,

Taken aback by the emotions, hidden from the glow.

When I smile it acts like me, it knows me so well, 

I reflect myself, it gives me hope like a story untold,

My reflection cried along, it was there when I yelled.

Reflections are memories of a soul to behold.

They are always there for us, even when we are alone

Only if one finds to admire the values in oneself

A mirror reflects the treasures for which it shone.

That treasure is not gold or silver, it is yourself

Broken down by unaccomplished dreams,

Hiding my own eyes filled with silent tears

Patience was measured in my heart with screams

Only because I want to, mirror hid my emotions and fears.

Now I see a smiling face, trying hard to hide what I actually feel,

Fed up with all the false hope and unknown destiny,

I am lost in my own world where everything is unreal,

Maybe that's why I reflect the true self because I want to be lost in ecstasy.

About poem- Like the emotions you drawn with your words and idea of mirror is a brilliant one.

I think it's easier to hide your true self than to actually let people know what really are your fears and feel vulnerable... Well penned emotions and kinda philosophical too. I like it :)

Profound words. I think to some extent when we look in the mirror sometimes we see that which we try to hide.

[Najam Us Saher]

You are right. I am glad that you understood the exact meaning I wanted to convey. Thank you so much for reading. ☺

This almost reminds me of the Mirror of Erised in Harry Potter. People look in and see what they desire most. In a sense, every mirror is that mirror, and, as you had beautifully stated in this poem, our world and our reality becomes so much more true once we look in and really see ourselves.
