Description: With this revision I endeavoured to bring forth the many facettes of Life we inherited. Whether from Past Shadows been reflected in our Lives or past Light obscured by today’s shortcomings - we still share in Life’s tragedies and Life’s Pureness.
Together in all of this – we still are Life’s Essence that need no Light therefore can cast no Shadows. No shadows so also no regrets. In Death we are One!
I am Reflections! -------------------------------------------
I am Reflections!
Many the Mansions
So Few the Corridors
So many the Rooms
So Few the Stairs
That lead to Perfection.
Am I a Mansion
With many Corridors
Am I a room
With many Mirrors
Am I those Reflections?
Yes – I am a Memory
The Shadows I cast
Those Reflections be mine
That hath no Light.
Yes - I am No Light
I am Dark Memories
With no Reflections
I am neither Here
I am neither There.
Sense seven I am
Yet I am no Shadow
I cast no Light
I am Pure Reflection!
You are a Reflection
Mirror of my Self
We cast no Shadow
Your reflection I am.
We are many Mansions
We share many Corridors
We have many Doors
We share few staircases.
We are Mirrors
That Reflect each other
We cast no Shadows
For we are One.
We Reflect Life
Where Light is Not
No Shadow Abides
We are Pure Essence!
One Mansion
One Door
One Staircase
We Share One Fate!
It's great to look upon someone that understands that we are all shadows of someone, something, some time. At one point or another we all mirror someone or something in our past. Maybe this is why history seems to repeat itself? Who knows.
In any case, you have a way with words. I read and re-read this piece because I think that it is great. I want to thank you for sharing, for it really has made me think.. as it will continue to make me think, also.
Wow this was definitely a unique vier upon this, i totally expected something else when i saw the subject. This is layered yet straightforward. I love it where you mention "i am your reflection" because this is so true, when we are that young we are mere reflections of those raising us and having authority over us. This was indeed one of those pieces that gets one thinking. Thanks for sharing this.
Ps. Typo in stanza 3: "Refelctions" must be "Reflections" other than that i think it's perfect.
