Reflect. Blog marathon post 10

The prompt given for this Sunday at Sunday Scribblings is ' Reflect'. Here is my entry for it, which also serves as post for the day.



Reflect



 



As I watch you stand on the balcony,

Looking out, pondering  over unsaid thoughts,

I reflect.



As I watch you have that cup of tea,

Saying a hundred things without speaking a word,

I reflect.



As I hear you lashing out in anger,

A hundred accusations flying wildly,

I reflect.



As I analyse the path I have chosen

And my conviction of sticking to it, even when lost,

I reflect.



But mostly I  think about all that has gone wrong

And all that could have been

I reflect.



And I weep.

For a love that died

But tears  continuing to flow are lost in  all the reflections.
