Reflection In the water
Are you lost at sea?
Were you here before?
Am I a distraction?
Please continue furthermore...
I must find it
The pondering orb that is floating
It's in the past I must assume
But as I put into perspective
The small ring in the distance
Is no longer distrtuctive
But I again ask and ask
for the answers I seek
For all that I know
You show up unexpectedly
Please tell me something I must know
Endless sleep and rising snow
I am buried and buried
In my own thought of sorrow
My thoughts come back to me
As if there is no tomorrow
The only reflection I see
is my thoughts in the water
As I peer over the boat and see
Clouds and pure sky above me
Nothing more but my self and I
So please tell me...
Why is there a whisper behind me?
But I cannot see it...
Perhaps a mirror could give me the same understanding
But again...
The whisper is something I cannot control
As the raging saddness
Is something I unintentionally unfold
But it is only I, I see
In the reflection in the water
I know you are here
No need to remind me...
I know you need to heal
But please allow me
To only see my reflection in the water
It is the only way you and I both
Can leave this melancholy state of mind
Is if you let me be
And focus on something
that will later be worth the find
Something wrong with this poem?
