Seemed Different

"what you see through the mirror"

Seemed Different

With every teardrop wasted
The trip seemed worthless
Thin, sorrow and pointless
For years what they had nested

Through the mirror the seen
Hopes not so lean
The other side more green
All that in between

As the fishes pass through the sky
Deep, yet up so high
Faith out of supply
The truth hidden in dye

With every teardrop wasted
The trip seemed worthless
Thin, sorrow and pointless
For years what they had nested

We see many things mirrored in our lives. And no matter what we do we will face adversity in one form or another despite our attempts at protecting our nest. I liked this particular stanza because it spoke to our hope and to our longing:

Through the mirror the seen
Hopes not so lean
The other side more green
All that in between

The trails and paths we have to cross in our Life's journey are never straight. Convoluted, confusing, twisting, rising up and sinking down into sharp and deep ravines on what might even seem like endless canyons mired with trials along the way…..
Why go through such? Why not stay in our own comfort zones - nestled in the knowledge that we are safe? Because Life is not about stagnation - it is about transformation and growth - and you need to face all the pitfalls and tribulations to discover what you are made of and what you can do….
Thank you for this thought-provoking read!

There are times when we feel our lives and loves matter naught and your poem captures this sense of grief very aptly. Wonderful write.
