There's a mirror lying at my feet
It only appears though, when I'm down.
It shows all my losses and regret.
When I push on, glass coats the ground.
I step over the broken pieces
feel a quickly-fading pain.
Hope that I'll come out ok
as my confidence starts to drain.
"Don't look back; Don't even think!"
Pleads an all too familiar voice
I urge myself to walk away
Resolving "I have made my choice."
Doubt never was one to relent though
Turning back, I'm horrified by what I see:
A rather warped and crude distortion
of the way things used to be.
No sooner have I realised this
a weight lifts - For now, I'm free.
Until the time my doubts resurface
But for now, I say, Let be.

This is one of those things I had to put out on paper before I lost the inspiration for it. Now that it's out I am most definitely planning to refine it and alter it if need be, however I want to put it up here anyway and see what people think.
Comments and suggestions most welcome
