Mirrored Glass

Mirrored Glass

A Poem by Siddartha Beth Pierce

Through mirrored glass

I see the past

while looking for the future

what happens now

is a matter of letting go

of old wounds, scars

so

that the next thing that

happens may pertain

to Light, goodness

rather than the darkness

that was bestowed

when I knew you well

could not quell

the atheist's fists

of denial.

 

Through mirrored glass

I see at last

a kind, welcoming face

although not my own

it is replaced by Him

a masterpiece

of loving, longing

lasting friendship

and desire to see

Him in the flesh

is a most consuming

wish

yet He leads

quietly, secretly

from behind

mirrored glass.

Beautiful piece, a brightly honed spiritual feeling and comfort with self ae really evident in this writing. It had a really nice cadence. Made me feel ten pounds lighter after reading it...a great diet plan in my estimation...lol. Great job.

This is gorgeous; great imagery and beautiful language! I love the contrasts between light and darkness & good and evil that are evident throughout this piece. Great job! ^_^

mmm caught a multi dimensional being again have you. Well I suppose you're probably up to it. They can be demanding...Makes me think of Snow White in a denoument of her story, reconciling her friendship with the mirror on the wall. Lovely and personal.
