Poem Entitled: Looking Glass
Looking inside
Seeing my reflection
Reflecting back at me
Who am I?
Where am I?
What is my purpose?
Looking through this looking glass
Questions unfold
What is my identity?
Who were my forefathers?
Who am I in totality?
Do I like the person I am?
Am I happy?
Am I proud of me?
Looking inside a looking glass
You cannot hide your insecurities
This glass sees it all
The scars you try to hide
The skeletons in your closet
The fear you have for trying something new
This looking glass sees all of you
You cannot hide from this looking glass
As it knows you
Looking into this looking glass
Do I like what I see?
Should I stand upright?
Should I let self –love ooze from my being?
Should I be confident?
Looking at this looking glass
