Reflections Poem by Taylor Hughes

Reflections



I passed a mirror
not long ago
it did not rouse the feelings
I had hope to bestow

I caught a glimpse of myself
of my mother
and second mother
of my past lovers

fear filled my eyes and
I caught a glimpse of my father
and that poignant preacher
from childhood

at that, I looked upon (angry)
I saw my ruthless peers
from throughout the years
and passer by after passer by

I passed love, hope, and sadness, too
without missing a beat

the things learned from this reflection:
Gaze.
Feel.
Repeat.
