Reflection

Reflection


Sullenly lost
Sleep walking
Through life
One foot
In front
Of the Other
Kris Kringle sang

My heart
Feels hollow
Bang banging
Within this
Hollow cage
Of bone

Alone

And the wind
Cuts deep

Of memories
That were never
Birthed

And
I find my reflection
Looking back at me
In a rain puddle
Of tears
That lays
Before
My feet

And

With
The reflection
I see you / me
Staring back
At what
I could

Have

Been
