a mirror

a fine 

piece

of glass

look how perfectly smooth it is

having its occasional

jagged bubble

but 

then again

is anything ever

perfect?

never mind

surpass the flaws

and look at the mirror as a whole

reflections

and another you

from another planet

seemingly

yet unaware of the fact

does everything you do 

stares back at you

a mirror

perfect

yet imperfect

now

bring the shining shard

to the sky

just do it

don't ask me why

feel the weight of it all

the power 

surge through you

feel it

as its just a

bout to fall

let go 

of the glow

and watch it sprinkle

like snow

like something sweet on your tongue

shards

and shards

of very distinct minds

all saying different words

but speaking alike

it's crazy

you saved me

from a rotten memory

and now 

i am forever thankful 

for everything

you gave to me

look at the floor

oh!

what a mess

millions

and billions

of trillions

in distress

the voices

they play

like a second hand serenade

lulling me safe

but no matter

the hardships

no matter the pain

all in all

its been a good day

Your poetry is always beautifully and eloquently expressed and this poem is no exception...wonderful job! Thank you for sharing your diagnosis. I was a social worker and worked with many people with differing diagnoses and I love that you are open about it. We need to live in a world where mental diagnoses are treated the same as physical ones in that they are nothing to be ashamed of. You are an amazing artist!

The only disorder is that someone believed they had the authority to tell you there was something wrong with you. That big loving heart of yours is reflected in your writing more than anything else :)

Nice work! I really love the thoughts, the honesty to be able to just put it out there... it takes a lot to be able to not only accept it but not be ashamed. Totally awesome :) I really enjoyed your words :)
