Reflection
by
Jonathan Isenor

When you look in the mirror
Do you like what you see?
Knowing what you have done was wrong
That you shouldn’t have walked out on your family
You know deep down that it was a mistake
But can’t find it in yourself
To go back and fix it
You walk away from the mirror
The guilt eating away at you
Like a lion ripping at it’s prey
As the years pass
You find yourself feeling worse
Still you can’t find it in you
To go back to your responsibilities
This time as you walk away from the mirror
You look back one last time
And you realize you don’t like what you see.
Never Again
