Images are reflections of you, and of me
And she and of he
I see them everywhere, near and afar
In the mirror, through the glass, an image
I see
In the present, there’s an image, and it stems
From the past
The camera and lens, a man’s leering eyes
I look over my shoulder, while taking my strides
I won’t be offended, I’m keeping my pride
I step on the bus, and the image I see
Through the window, made of glass
It is the dark side of me

That’s what makes a good poem. You weren’t trying to make it everyone’s story, but it was there to be found by the reader.

Doing some random blog reading tonight and came across your blog. Read a number of your poems. I hope this isn’t too personal, but do you suffer from depression? I seem to be picking that up.

Hello, no I don’t. I write from feeling of a bad marriage. I am a happy, and healthy person loving life, and all its creations. 🙂 Thank you.

No problem. I have so much to say about my life, but it is difficult to write. I build up to it bit, by bit.
