Just a reflection...
                           A fragile body, a tiny face stares back
                             From the glass of my tears.

Just a reflection...
                          A friendship, permanently part of me,
                            But permanently ended by tragedy.

Just a reflection...
                          The eyes where I once found hope, love, and trust,
                           Now merely a stinging vision.

Just a reflection...
                          The memory of a life I held close, yet payed too little attention
                           While it was mine to care for.

Just a reflection...
                          Another whom I hold dear walks over, wipes away the tears and asks,
                             "What do you see?"
                            And I answer,

"Just a reflection."

Author's Comments

I was finishing a pre-lab write up when the idea for this decided to surface in my head. Based off of a friend I lost to death long ago, and a dream I had where I saw her again last night, and she faded away.
Also, since I haven't written anything in forever, please feel free to critique this a bit. I could use the brush-up.

Aww, I am really sorry to hear about your loss. IT may've been a long time ago, but that's not the kind of thing that leaves you :(

On a more positive note, you did a really good job on this!

Thanks, Shad.
You're right, no matter what it is, it's never all the way gone. But it never should be, I think. Even though it's painful, those we've lost have all taught us lessons somewhere that help make us who we are, and have shared joy with us that would do them a disservice to forget.
Wow, guess I'm in a philosophical mood tonight. :blush: Shutting up and going to bed now...
