Mirrored through swirls of memories fogged in a haze,
My sorrow is reflected as I try to remember in vain.
Crazed by anguish,
deaf by disbelief,
I gazed through a painted reflection,
burdened by grief.
My essence becomes foreign,
lost to a wound that never heals,
as I will never remember,
what I tried so hard to conceal.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Oh my gosh, I love this. Because it has a connection to me and my life. I've felt lkike this way before and I think I still do. The funny thing is that I wrote a poem similar to this, that I haven't submitted yet. Keep writing, please! Your poem is wonderful just like you are! You're a treasure, I hope you know that! Thank you for sharing this, my friend!!!
