The Mirror World

The mirror world is where
We never met
No times of fear
No years of regret

The mirror world is where
The children are not abused
You cannot hurt them
Or make them feel used

The mirror world is where
I wish I began
Instead I am here
And you’re not a real man

The mirror world is now my real world
I marry my best friend
Life may not always be blissful
But my old world is at its end

A beautiful poem, Kymber. I like how it started so mournful and brightened at the end.

“The mirror world is where
I wish I began”

Such a lovely sentence, you can put so many meanings into those few words…

Hello dear Kymber. Where is Spring in Michigan? Be careful, be safe and you are welcome.

Kymber May 9, 2020 - 4:41 pm

Stay safe, too, John. 🙂 I think that Michigan didn’t get the memo it’s Spring. If it snows one more time… LOL

Big storm out east. I hope Spring come soon.

Kymber May 9, 2020 - 5:00 pm

I saw that. Hopefully, it doesn’t do a lot of damage. I hope Spring comes soon, too. 🙂

Gorgeous photo, and I too was thinking of Dan’s “Paint Me” story! As well as a Sci-Fi movie I saw recently called Upside Down. Your poem stirs up a lot of emotions in me.

Thank you so much. I haven’t seen that movie, but I love Sci-Fi, so I’m putting it on my list.

This is beautiful Kymber. I’m taking notes. The mirror lake is how I pictured the lake that Gunnar is so fascinated with. You make it a portal to look inside the soul.

Reply
Kymber May 4, 2020 - 5:21 pm

You know what? I thought of Gunnar when I saw this picture! lol Thank you, Dan.

Hyperion May 4, 2020 - 5:44 pm

You are most welcomed, Kymber. I think I got lost gazing at the picture and reading your poem.

Reply
Kymber May 4, 2020 - 6:25 pm

Aww… well, honestly, I don’t think I’d mind being lost in that picture.

Reply
Hyperion May 4, 2020 - 9:46 pm

I’d just love to dog paddle around in it. 😁

Kymber May 5, 2020 - 9:27 am

Wouldn’t that be nice? 😂

Hyperion May 5, 2020 - 12:55 pm

Exquisitely so ☺️
