Reflection-what the mirror doesnt show

The surface

show not what lies beneath

it is only a reflection

of the person looking at it

clear water may show

the beauty within

but only if the beholder

can see past

their own reflection

dont judge a book

by it’s cover

but watch the person

who does

for this

is what the mirror

doesn’t show

i like your advice, in this piece, to keep an eye on one who is quick to judge. i feel like there was alot of thought put into just a few words on this poem and that usually makes for a great poem as far as i’m concerned. good work here. keep it up.
