Challenge
There have been several mirror challenges but in this case we take and use the word "reflection" somewhere in your write. Poetry or Prose. It cannot be used as a title. Use it as a reflection of life, what you feel or see, long ago memories, or all the "what if's" ... Take "reflection" and run with it!

Me?
I look into the mirror
and wonder if I see
the same woman in your eyes
when you are looking at me.
Am I pretty?
Am I kind?
Is there great knowledge
in my mind?
Can you see love
reflected in my eyes
or pain or sadness
that never dies?
Do you see beneath the surface?
Do you see beyond the smile?
Do you feel my soul’s turbulence
Do you think I can be vile?
Can you love what I hate?
Can you help me to see
what’s really there
what’s truly me?
Can you be my reflection
tell me who I am
guide me to myself
Perhaps even give a damn?
