Mirror Reflection
Suzanne Mondoux · 3 November 2020
Within the vessel I find myself confined I look out the tiny window for a glimmer of light I drift in the sea from coast to coast A mirror reflection from which I came shines back at me An ocean of memories lingers in my dreams I was alive somewhere once I know this from the mirror reflection smiling back at me
At night I watch the glitter of life swirling around me The moon cast a glitter of life in the sea I read by this light, I live for this moment, in my vessel My books are a mirror reflection of a world I dream and dream Mirror reflection of my fantasies echo my hallucinations I never know if I’m in a nightmare or if I left a nightmare To live somewhere other than in reality imposed on me
Mirror reflection of the sequence of events Some vague, some all too clear I delight in a trance of little expectation of my hopes and dreams I rush to the ending so I can drown in my daydreams Mirror reflection of all my delusions What a fantastic place
