Perfectly Imperfect Poetry

By Gabrielle Krier

The majority of poems in this book are kind of sad because sad memories and moments are more profound in my memory. Although happiness should overpower sadness, there just seems to be a lot more negative events in my life currently. The happy poems are usually about times I enjoy reflecting on or are about nature. All of these come from somewhere deep inside me, and I put much effort into them, so I hope everyone that reads this book enjoys my poetry.

A Reflection in the Mirror

Mirrors are used to show your reflection

But sometimes we fall into their deception

Because they don’t show what’s on the inside

Which is more important than what is on the outside

When the beauty on the inside is what matters

Not the looks that are the ones who appear to flatter

Looking in the mirror makes some think they’re not handsome or pretty

The words that describe this are self-piety

Beautiful things come from what’s in the heart

And in life, the beauty on the inside is the most important part

Alive

Crisp air

Up there

Touch the sky

See with new eyes

A great sight

No light

A different point of view

Something quite new

All disappears around me

This was the one and only key

Breathe in deep

A feeling to keep

Heart pounds

So far from the ground

A smile on my face

My own little place

Thoughts not of dread

A fresh road ahead

Only some noise

A place I enjoy

I feel free

I know what I can
