This is a beautiful love poem. Sad and nostalgic It shows that we can survive and endure life even without the one we loved so much. This poem touched my heart. Great job!.

Thank you so much for reading the poem and your incredibly kind and encouraging words. It is very much appreciated.

A very touching and realistic poem about loss. I imagine that so many feel this way in their "golden years", coping with loss from a spouse and subsequent loneliness. Sometimes mirrors should be avoided--too much reflection! Well written.

Yes, indeed. I tend to stay away from them myself. I don't seem to fit in them these days!

I do hope this is biographical. You are living in the past with your memories and in the future with hope of death to rejoin with your past. Look in the mirror and see a face that could brighten someone's day in the present.

Comment from Edward J
That's sad. A wonderful take on the prompt though. The attachment he felt with her is so on the surface you can touch it. A very well written poem. Natural rhymes that don't distract and only enhance the flow.

This is a good entry for the mirror contest. It has good rhyme, and most of it reads smoothly. Only one line tripped me up as I read it because it's a little too long.
I see a life that's been lived, though at times it was tough (Suggestion: A life that's been live, though at times it was tough)
Good luck in the contest.

This is such a poignant poem about what you see in the mirror. It's as though you're seeing your whole life in the mirror. The poem is well done with good rhyme, rhythm and flow. Good luck to you, Jeanie Merce

Comment from Adri7enne
Sort of scary to think that one's life ends with another. Love is always taking a big chance, isn't it?
Good rhyming. "lost and riposte" was brilliant. I enjoyed the read. Good luck in the contest.
