Mirrors

I see right through you,
Words unspoken
Moments filled with regret.

I see right through you
Roads taken
Causes leading to effects.

I see right through you
Tear drops falling
Behind a smiling face.

I see right through you
True love lost
Never to be replaced.

I see right through you
In a different time. 
In a unknown space

I see right through you
Foolish heartbreaks
and stupid mistakes.

I see right through you,
Lost inside lies
Of who you pretend to be.

I see right through you
Praying for death
Hoping to be free.

I see right through you
You see flaws
I see perfection

I see right through you
Everything you are 
For you are my reflection..

A mirror is a door to our souls......as mentioned in some cultures and we can never lie to a mirror. Great take!

This was excellent. the poem reflects what many of us feel and go through, but often too scared to reveal. It shows the deconstruction of a person once their guard is down, it is that process of getting to know someone, and I mean really getting to know someone, their true persona that is so wonderful in a world where outer appearances are sadly dictated by norms.

When I start reading, I think that it's a poem that's written for someone else but when I come to an end I find how deep the poem is ..because it's not for anyone else but for oneself who's talking to oneself to let the pain go into the ashes and let the peace and passion of new life come in ..into the heart of loves...

Yeah, the world gives us hurt and always stops us doing what we wanna do because this's life and if you don't fall once you can never learn how to stand up on the ground oneself without anyone's help so, i'd now label this poem "An Inspirational one" because it's expressing some kinda deep messages through the poem to live the life .. without remembering the past because if your present's not better than your past then there's still some errors in you to live .....
............
and to rectify those errors ...everybody should say oneself standing before the mirror that...
"I see right through you
Everything you are
For you are my reflection!"

Lovely poem! Marvelous reading!
