Analysis of Reflect
Life numb.
Glamour foul.
Still you uphold avail.
Must it be restored; restelss written spoken word.
Ignored very noted word; every spoken word, you have ignored.
Mirrors reflect as so do words.
Must I say, you seem to be so; so sad, I must say it so.
Words reflect when spoken.
However, reflection you have ignored.
