Existential peom about individuation.

Mirrors

I observed and painted you sadly,

I noted the reflections.

In you I saw me, in seeing you

I saw myself.

not as others see me,

But as I see myself.

We act as mirrors do,

Canvassing the surface of our emotions,

Sometimes dulled.

For thought of a happy memory

Gives way to the realization of it

Never to occur.

And an unhappy memory is just that
