Confusion (Photograph & Words)

Confusion

As mirrored glass,
my soul reflects in water,
the etchings blurred
in borrowed lines.

Branches thinly veiled,
rippling within the stream.
I confess my confusion,
upon the looking glass.

For her glance.

You've captured the confusion aspect in your photography and words here. I feel distortion and confusion when I look upon that looking glass at times. Water brings confusion when you look at that image rippling and feeling it. I hope I answered here correctly in my words! 🌿💫

@SW-User You have answered correctly. I'll remind you there is no 'right' answer here, tho. I'm just glad my words match my old photograph. I titled it years ago, during a time of my life I was enduring a lot of confusion, where to look in life to find solace, and while the words would never come to me then to write them. I had placed hope in one day, may I understand myself one day later? Or years later?

I have always loved this shot. It remained without words until I could untangle its meanings for me.

You have captured well my thoughts... 💫
