Who are YOU?

in #poetry6 years ago

Do you know yourself?
The view from in here
you wouldn't believe
If the eyes are windows to the soul
Mine are mirrored glass
With one look I'll show you
exactly who you are
While failing to see it myself
To always be watching
I see little of what's in front of me

Do not worry that I'll see your faults
My piercing gaze goes far deeper
Than your shallow insecurities
And you will always be
A complete mystery
For what I see isn't you
It's me.

I writhe in my skin
A sea of stars
Condensed
Into a suit far too small
Tailored for the occasion
My modest appearance
Only compromised
when I speak
Daggers and Bees

The view from in here
You wouldn't believe
