Poem: Reflection

note: this poem is solely about a persons reflection in a mirror but has many hidden meanings in it. please take note of how the structure is. you need to pay close attention to fully understand it. i put lines used in the poem together to create a whole sentence that fully wraps the above up. all the sentences created go perfectly to wrap up the entire poem. it is very confusing and you will more than likely need to read it multiple times to understand it. i really like this idea that i got... i don't know if it already exists so id say its experimental.

I am a worthless being;
a faceless silhouette.

I have a twin just like me
which I now meet.

As I stare into the mirror it
stares back at me.

A faceless silhouette which I now meet stares back at me.


Behind his deceitful back
he is carrying with him

An artifact forsaken:
the lost key.

This key opens the sealed gate
to my faith.

He is carrying with him the lost key to my faith.


He is an empty reflection
beyond this portal.

Every time I see him
he laughs at me.

He comes from the void
to augment my misery.

Beyond this portal he laughs at me to augment my misery.



I choose when to see him, so
I hold the last laugh.

I will regain confidence
as he vanishes.

He is my reflection, gone
with a single step.

I hold the last laugh as he vanishes with a single step.
