Secluded, Isolated
By the ocean water's edge
Forgive me for I have sinned-
To you I beg

Disregard the sickness inside my soul
The stained Guilt on my breath
Though I cannot control-
This painful Regret

Remorse by roses
And graved by this Pain
Forget the promises
Just paint a picture of my heartache's stain

The author's comments:
This poem is a copy of my favorite poet's style, Emily Dickinson. This poem is a reflection of myself and how I see my life. I sound as if I am speaking to someone else when in reality I am speaking to myself. Therefore, I titled this piece "Mirror" because that is who I am indirectly speaking too. This is a reoccurring theme to my pieces.
