Life, A Mirror

I can’t find you,

Hidden, in the plethora,

Of thoughts, mixed,

And complicated, but,

Same, yet too diverse,

Vivid, but not different,

Distant, but not far,

A hazy reflection,

Curtained, not enveloped,

Portraying, but not showing,

All that’s hidden in plain sight,

An image, yet not just a mirage,

A perception, but not an illusion,

Your face, abstract, unmoved,

Undeterred, unperturbed,

A replica of water, still,

Running deep, and I, a pebble,

Disturbing, upsetting, destroying,

The surface, the calm, the tranquil,

Life as it is, a mirror, not a wall,

So are you lost, or am I?
