    JUST A REFLECTION

    The mirror never lies.
    Each time you have a doubt,
    just go and check yours out.
    The mirror never lies.
    It tells me when I have a bad hair day,
    when my make up is all messed up.
    It lets me know when something in my appearance is wrong.
    The mirror never lies.
    I sat in front of it for most of my life.
    Always checking how I look on the outside,
    but never truly could see what I look and felt in the inside.
    The mirror never lies.
    It never showed what I hold within-
    the anger and the resentment.
    The only thing that was shown was just my reflection.
    A reflection that lacks any facial expression.
    It never showed how alone and unprotected I've felt at times.
    The need of love and the feeling of being wanted that I lust.
    The mirror never lies, but it does hide.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
