The One in the Mirror

Silence creates an impeccable noise.

One that requires incredible poise.

As some of you read this you understand

our circumstances can create pain that destroys.

So I urge us to pay attention to our thoughts

Pay attention to our hearts

and pay attention to the desire for joy

we feel when the pressure starts.

Trust me, for I know how the heat

gets hot

When our efforts are diminished

by mixed emotions

inside this mixing pot.

We all have our struggles

Some just hide them better.

One can’t lie to the one in the mirror,

As it is only after we open our eyes to our own strength

that our vision becomes clearer.

And as it is only once we realize we can, that we will.

We will overcome, then become

the very being that will inspire

the very one.

The one that needs to be inspired.

The one in the mirror

The one that will make

Our dreams and visions become clearer.
