What Happened, I Asked The Police And Later The Psychiatrist.
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. It was barely visible. I believed it was a woman. But I didn't think it was me. Then I thought, it was the mirror that got fogged up because of my shower. But how could that be me when hands are clearly on the mirror and mine are not?

What If The World Really Was Purple Every Evening

I Put Contests Together For Poetry/Rhyme And Give Prizes Once A Year.

A Poem A Day In February Contest
I worked with the young man who wrote the poem above. He died and left a wife and a young son. His son turned six this month. His wife placed the above photo on a post on Facebook and I thought it would be a great prompt for a contest. I asked friends to use the poem to inspire them.
