I wish that all mirrors could be windows, Having had quite enough introspection. I want to live in the world the world knows, The world that is more than my reflection. Trapped behind walls seeing nothing but me, These mirrors have cost me my perspective. If I’m all there is, who am I to be? Solipsism is no man’s objective. I peer through the glass right back into my face. I don’t even know if I’m seen behind. Windows are mirrors to the human race, But the reflection in mine makes me blind. I wish that all mirrors could be windows, But scared the world won’t like what I expose.

Sonnet To Loneliness
I wish that all mirrors could be windows, Having had quite enough introspection. I want to live in the world the world knows, The world that is more than my reflection. Trapped behind walls seeing nothing but me, These mirrors have cost me my perspective. If I’m all there is, who am I to be? Solipsism is no man’s objective. I peer through the glass right back into my face. I don’t even know if I’m seen behind. Windows are mirrors to the human race, But the reflection in mine makes me blind. I wish that all mirrors could be windows, But scared the world won’t like what I expose.
