Reflection Poem by Vaibhav Pandey

Reflection

Rating: 5.0


I used to stare at strangers
strolling in serenity with
hatred heavy on my heart.
The reasons, repentant,
rattled my ratiocination.

Till the time transpired
the transition of thought.
In retrospection, I realised
that the rage residing in
my retina was nothing but
my reflection resonating,
reeking off their faces.

Wow, this is profound. You see what I told you earlier about your being so deep for your age. So was I. It is what poets need to be. A poet has a happy lighter happy childlike side and a deep philisophocal side and a romantic side and even a dark side. YOu expressed this nicely and I like it very much, I like for a poem to make me think 'I've been there, I know how he feels'. Nice job Susan
