Stared at my reflection
To get to the other side
But there's nothing there I can't get here
It's just a way to hide
When hiding's what you hate to do
It comes too naturally
And what you find will not be real
But fake blinds, actually
It's much too late for my repair
Too hard to start anew
I want to break this looking glass
And find a different view
But I can't do it by myself
Not with my own two hands
It wears on me so tight it might
Snap like a rubber band
I just don't want to have to bleed
When all is said and done
Cuz breaking that old looking glass
Is better than to run
It took a while to turn away
But now I really see
And every day lets me see how
I've lost all sight of me
They all say life's a rocky road
With obstacles to pass
So in my rear-view mirror
Let there be some broken glass

Excellent. In my opinion I believe it would turn out to make a great song.
I can really relate to your verse:
"I want to break this looking glass
And find a different view"
I have been there and felt that same urge.
A wonderful write indeed.

well chelsea i believe this is one of the first poems ive read from you ever. i was impressed with bits of this mainly because of the rhythm, analogies, or the bit of creativity sprinkled throughout this. i would say some other things i liked was the beginning, for its concept and the ending, was just perfect. i would say this was a bit of self awareness added as well (which personal writes sometimes do turn out to be the better ones from a poet). i would say the one thing i found off was the use of, "cuz". with a poem as professional as this having, cuz in it just kind of was a let down for me. 'Cause is fine for rhythm, but...i just really hate those short cuts in writing words, no offense =] ::forgot to look for any stupid, great write comments on this:: |

Well said. Well said.
Take care, and remember, duct tape fixes everything, almost. Peace.
