Reflection of complexion



What is reflection of complexion
Is it black or fair
Or more powerful than the original pair
Quite difficult assessment to guess
It's not an easy option or mesd
Black and white reflex the same shadow
And speak the truth with sorrow
Reflection expresses the truth
It finds any color beautiful
