Image Poem by Harry Gum

You look at the figure in front of you watching as the sweat beads roll off their forehead.


Watching as the water fills there eyes knowing there emotions and feelings are forbidden to the outside world.


The cry of help and heartache stings your ears as you connect with them. Your hand raises meeting theres...and you feel nothing.


There body now drained you watch as there tears stop and you know the feelings he holds within will never give way.


You want to help him, but are afraid of what will become of this image in front of you. You raise your hand again to touch his...........as u give one last look into his empty eyes...


You turn and walk away from the mirror.
