I lay in bed,
Watching.
I look at the
Flying bird
Outside my window.
I look at the
Trees,
Dancing and swaying
With the wind.
I look at the
Crack
Splitting my cieling.
I look at the
Sleeping form
Across from me.
I look at the
Rise and the
Fall
Of the blankets.
I look at the
Way the curtains
Float on the window.
I look into the
Mirror
In my closet.
I see the reflection of
The room.
I see the reflection of
My bed,
My blanket...
But
I have disappeared.
My reflection does not exist.

This may seem a little bit redundant because of the previous reviews, but frankly I have the same thing to say: it needs to flow more. The flow could be better by simply combining two lines into one here and there. Beside that, I love the simplicity of this poem, because it makes the ending very surprising.
Hello there! This was very good poem. I go however agree upon the fact that at some points the flow of it is.... odd, for lack of a better word. Like here-
I don't know, when I was reading this, there was something that just sound right with the flow.
But all in all, very nice. Keep up the work =)
Hello, Well, I like the poem but the way you formated it just makes it hard to read.
I think that with some editing this poem can be very very good.
Also, these are just suggestions...

It was good, you twist ended a poem good. It could flow a little better
Well, first and far most of it when I was reading this I felt like after every 3 words or so you'd skip a line. When writers do that they should really put some words together, like one sentence then a few words straying away from the others. Like this:
See how its much easier to read like that? Try for something more different than the periods(.) commas (,) make it more interesting to read. Good luck and keep writing.
