REFLECTION

Posted on 08/05/09, 05:16 pm

each day in the mirror behind me I see
a glimpse of an Angel and He misses me
He hugs my heart with strong arms that I know
He offers me shield from the most terrible blow

each day in the mirror before me I see
a woman and a mom that once was me
I comb and I spray and go about my day
then I cry and I cry and remember to pray

each night in the mirror right through me I see
my soul and my heart that wants to be free
but my baby left me here alone
so I live and I love until I go home

someday in the mirror before me will be
someone that I loved looking back at me
will they know I am there to help them see
the rapture and the grace of eternity

welcome to poems written in blood. i once created a group called write away the pain. now i'm going to start over and see how many poets are out there. if anyone has a good poem to share or create. this is the right place for you. remember writing heals.
