Selfreflection Poems
Something About The Waves
by Nancy Nile
It was something about the waves
Rising strong and tall
Breaking soft and small
A sense of calm my body craves
It was something about the reflection
A distorted being holding me captive
A version of me that speaks in cursive
It’s easy to forget the mirror too is broken

Circus Lion's Lament
by Author Reinvented
What is a king?
Oh a foolish thing,
So pathetic and tired,
A crown of gold,
A mighty roar,
All to jump through a hoop made of fire.
Oh,
But what is a king?
Oh a terrible thing,

A Self Evaluation
by Ellen Hillman
So much passion.
It all crashes into each other.
It bursts through the cracks,
Until the dam breaks and it overflows.
The passion for passion
And the passion for others’ passions;
It inspires so much love and warmth
And maybe this is the glint,

Are you happy now?
by Author Reinvented
Spending all your life looking to the future,
Letting all the moments pass by,
Never notice all the times trampled underfoot,
Eyes are always focused on the sky.
Spending all your life looking to the future,
Head always up in the clouds,
Always waiting for it to all get better,
But tell me, are you happy now?
