Broken Mirror ©

One body, one mind, one spirit and soul;
Comprised and many thoughts, contradictions and goals;
The reflection of a whole man, but distorted in pieces;
A simple plan turns complex, in this world of seasons;
Adapting to emotions, and dealing with feelings,
Changing with the winds, but undisclosed and revealing.
You can see it clearly, the reflection of humanity, all in one body.

Mentally drained and frustrated from conflict,
Overjoyed and elated in victory;
Chastised and badgered to defeat;
Edified and privileged with admiration.
The stumbling blocks used are worn from age,
Yet still efficient as they were in King David's days;
The best of two worlds, both good and evil, all in one mind.

The anchor that holds this old battleship at bay,
Strength of a thousand horses, never fatigued or weary,
Faith has no eyes, but its vision is never blurry,
No holds barred in this war for eternity,
Yes there are flaws, but only on the side of iniquity.
The spirit of the Most High embodied in the soul of one man.

You can see it all in the reflection of this mirror.
Broken into pieces, though you can view its truth,
Complex as it seems, but yet it's still a piece of you.
There's nothing hidden when you make time for reflection,
This mirror bares it all, while others conceal their convictions.
Take a moment to enjoy the pieces of me,
That's correct; I'm the broken mirror, a reflection of humanity.
