Sheila M King Jun 2016
Another year has come and gone

Just like friends' time moves on

Those remembered years ago

All have aged, as time moved slow

We look into the "looking glass"

And see an image as time moved fast

Though we know whose looking back

Still there seems to be a crack

It could just be a reflection,

A glitch in time of old direction

A part of who we use to be

The image looking back at me

Has time caught up or took it's toll?

Or is it still same 'ole same 'ole?

Am I who I use to be-

Though someone older looks back at me

" I wonder", staring into that glass

Has time really kicked my ***?

Is this who people really see

As I look at them, they look at me

-Yes,  we all still age and still time goes on forever-

It will not stop and it has never

We cannot travel back in time;

Only wish at times, it were frozen

We cannot change what time has done

Only see what it has chosen

Each time we look into the glass hanging somewhere on a wall

The reflection staring back at you may not be you at all

The image we see as we go about our day and catch a glimpse of ourselves as we pass-

Is not what time has made us inside, and cannot reflect who we are in a glass

— The End —
