Reflections

Small white candle
Not very bright
Still it gives me the light
So I can write

Write while I listen
The world is so quiet
I have music in my mind
I’m taken to so many places
As the songs move me along
True friends
New loves discovered
Dreams that are shattered
Loneliness, regret, and fears
So alive, and so dead
The music playing in my head
Every song reflecting a piece of a memory

I look towards the window
See a faint reflection
Looking into my own eyes
I know what lies deep inside
I wonder if it’s true
Are eyes really the windows to our souls?
If they are, then can everyone see what hides inside of mine?
Is everything that we are, reflected in our eyes?

When I look into the mirror
I don’t always like what I see
When I look deeper, so much deeper
I am pleased with who I really am
Reflections of my soul
Say more that the mirror ever could

But now that the lights are back on
Will I remember to see
What that reflection in the window showed me
