“Mirror, Mirror”
by A_F_R_O_W
Not what you know,
but whom.
Sitting, in the middle
of your living-room,
you face
the doom and gloom,
with newfound strength.
For your Peace,
you go to lengths
which, before,
you would not dare.
Instead,
into the eyes
of fear and pain,
you, boldly, stare.
Realising,
that you will not
stay there.
Simply,
handle some
emotive business,
you had, quite, forgotten.
Ready,
to assess, into the night.
Not frightened to do so,
to put the past, to right.
But this is no pity-party.
You did not “r.s.v.p”
the invite!
This is looking back,
from the Present,
with 2020-insight.
Holding up the mirror
to reflect.
Taking down the books
of Truth and Wisdom
from the dusty, Life-shelf..
you acknowledge,
that you’ve won the battle
and the war..
So,
punch the air!
For
you’ve realigned,
with Spirit,
Heart,
Soul
and Self.
