Plain old selfA Poem by EnigmaMy reflection Looks a lot like me The real me The dishevelled hair Symbolic of a wild day The wild eyes Shining through the deep dark circles That lie beneath I prefer the reality to the false dreams I see myself In my "home" clothes My brother's old tee Hanging loosely on my frame Faded navy blue Oh, its so soft And comfortable My pajamas And my bare feet Looking like a feet of someone who trods along the road of life without soles The pleasure is there The contentment is there The joy of having my outer and inner worlds in sync Is definitely there...

My heart And my soul My real self No pretensions No flase claims over a beauty I know I don't posess All I have is me Which I gave him The only question remains.. 'Will that be enough?' © 2011 EnigmaAuthor's Note
