Self ImageA Poem by John Anderson
What do you see when you look in the mirror
Is it what you expected to see Is it worse than you imagined or better Do you like the image that is portrayed Or could you change what you see or feel Do you feel that the image you look at reflects how you feel Or do you find it easily to look away from the reflection Do you find yourself ugly to look at Or is the ugliness inside Do we always self analyze ourselves in mirrors Certainly not in public in public we preen We correct ourselves but not the real you We correct the outer shell which the world sees Not the real us we save that till we are alone In the bathroom or bedroom at home Then again you may feel fine about who you see You may actually like the person that you see and that is rare Rare, but how it should be. I hope when you see yourself in the mirror You like what you see. As for me...well I wrote this! © 2014 John Anderson |
