Mirror

Looking in the mirror

it would appear

that my eyes have reflections

these are detections

of a past life

black pupils piercing like a knife

against the blue-gray of my eyes

they tell the truth otherwise

they would not be

meeting eye to eye with me

in my rejection

of a reflection

Mirrors are great inspiration for great literature, such as your poem you have here. I confess - I've stared into my own eyes in the bathroom mirror as well. Isn't it wonderful how overcome by emotion you can become? It's no wonder our eyes have been the central theme of so much literature...
