Life and mirror

Life is just like a mirror

A grey long glass mirror

You make a sin, it turns

A black moving shadow, no

Face, just hands and mouth

This mouth sings your sin

In a tough and sharp voice

Just like a throaty lion tone

You scream for it, shut up

It can`t go out, life prisons

him in inside this mirror

You are safe now! Only now

You don`t make a sin, it turns out

A white long phoenix with white ribbons

It sings poetry, not sins, written by

Success and rhyme with hope and

Meter with love and warm

The black shadow may deceive

The white phoenix to grab you

Inside this twisty mirror, to see

Your fate, hear your lies and write

Your sins with shaking and sweating hand

All of this happening, life claps

Help, help, you scream and scream

Life watches you from its seat

points and laughs at your end.

It reminds me of the portrait of Dorian Gray. He remained young and handsome while the mirror
became old and ugly. I think the mirror reflected his soul and sometimes we are taken in by good looks
and overly polite manners. It is what is inside us that counts. Our true selves. Kindness and goodness
is what we should strive toward. Excellent poem I enjoyed reading it.

Sorry not the mirror but his portrait.
