Mirrors

I have always believed GOD gave each man their share of bad luck,

And you have broken me down...

So tired, so fine, and I might hate you, but I will never love you any less.

I might be stressed, on the daily, like when you can’t silence a screaming baby.

I might be stressed, but just to have had you placed in my life for a fraction of time, I know that I’m blessed.

Aren’t we just?

I can be a mess, just wanting to stay in my bed and lay dead.

Dead to the world and when it comes to this I’m the very best.

Late nights all alone wanting to leave this place in time.

Oh my,

Staple my eyes, so you’ll never have to feel a tear drop from the grey,

And lids and lashes have no use because you?

I no longer view.

How can I go on without you?

Easy, just do, but that isn’t so simple.

It’s harder to accept when the problem is blue.

Blue as the summer skies, living without a try, trying not to comply with the daily lies, I wish not to do so, but I do so just to get by without the thoughts of who, what, where, when, how, and why.

You see the mind is the greatest trap.

Wanting to think, but I feel no happiness.

I write what I wish to believe, but I feel none of it.

Tear on, fighting my way out of my chest because my love is never at rest.

Perfection is the greatest imperfection, when you realize this, it will allow you to see and notice our true self.

How are you loving this infliction of self reflection?

God, life and knowing peace. Hard to be done.
"Perfection is the greatest imperfection, when you realize this, it will allow you to see and notice our true self."
Perfection. Can happen for a second. We always want more or less. A great write. Left the reader with thoughts and possibilities. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Hmmm sounds like my hard nights. Where I want the world to swallow me away.

[sinNsincerity]

I'm great at letting the world swallow me away...and sometimes I don't ever want to come back...

[TheOne&Only]

I can relate.... :-/

[sinNsincerity]

Well, it helps to know that you're not the one and only to feel such a way. You have me.

[TheOne&Only]

I agree, it does help!! .....and as you have me!

[jeannemarie coulter]

very powerful and sad write...you say knowing the other person was a blessing in your life...i say your presence in their life was also a blessing, and when they realize this their reflection might reach perfection...well penned...

hehe Thank you so much!

God handing out bad luck? May they are his trials. Interesting thought.

If loving someone despite the pain is a test, you pass, as would I. I do not think love should stop when someone important to you leaves. Its never-ending.
As for not believing what you wrote, that's the eternal optimist in you. That's hope for tomorrow.

Surly trials and even if I don't pass, I must learn from them, so that I may be a tad bit prepared for what's to come...
Thank you so much for reading Jan!
God bless you.

Sin in Sincerely: This is a profound and powerful composition. Wow! I love it..So many emotions, ragged and raw. To answer the last line, I am loving it. Every single heartfelt word. Actually, you kept surprising me. It's unique - a departure from the clique love story. You have an exceptional ability to express your emotions. My favorite line, but you grabbed me with the first line. So tired, so fine, and I might hate you, but I will never love you any less. Thank you...Dale

Thank you so much Dale!

You're welcome!

introspection often awakens the soul and in it we are likely to find, instead of answers, more questions that eventually lead us to understand that we are imperfect and that we do hurt and cause others hurt and that love and hate can exist within the same line... we all have those mirrors...a thought-provoking and well-written piece, SiS

[sinNsincerity]

An endless amount of mirrors, but the point is not to get lost or stuck in them...
Thank you so much for spending the rime to read, I highly appreciate it.

Perfection is a 'mirage'. Sometimes when we are a bit delusional, we think there's a possibility to reach this image of purity. Thank you for sharing this contemplating poem. :) Rudi

[sinNsincerity]

Yep, I have learned that accepting that I am flawed, but at long as I do the best to be the best me as possible...that's perfection for me. And I don't need anyone to acknowledge that but God.

[Rudi J.P. Lejaeghere]

You're so right. :)

[MsJewel]

This poem has its soul towards its end. The line "Perfection is ....... Reflection? Is my favourite nd shows the truth of the imperfect feeling " I m perfect" You are a good thinker as well as writer. The end really surprises reader. It is a good artwork. Keep it up!

[sinNsincerity]

Thank you so much for thinking so Divya, i really appreciate you spending the time to read.
