mirrors.

Judge me.
Judging you.
I judge you because I swear to god you're judging me.
You judge me in response to my "I'm judging you" face
But this isn't the right time or place
for such nonsense.
So when is?
The fact of the matter is,
society will judge you regardless.........................................................................But if I stay in tuned with myself

Not even the king's smirks or slurs will phase this
I possess the ability to deflect and redirect your vibes untarnished
What heads in your direction is the essence of your reflection

Meanwhile I head towards the sign that reads "Higher Self"
Digging deeper for the rules that define my meaning
I may come off as selfish or self-centered
But I must seek the valleys of my soul
Where true judgement resides within the section
of my heart...
                         
           The epitome of my reflection.

really like this ...wondrous depth and significance ... we miss-judge so easily for so many reasons we believe are true ... tantalizing psychology in your "Mirrors." ..love the format ... great stuff ..just my cup of tea! :)

Well done and well said. Very few people anymore seem to realize the value of self-worth, but instead rely on the vacuous praise of their part-time peers to define themselves, only to find themselves lost when it evaporates. I admire those who can turn away from the group to stand and be themselves.

Outstanding work, The message is so powerful, it overwhelms all aspects of the piece!

Indeed, how we judge is partly a reflection of ourselves. the format of this piece is something unique.

of my heart... This is my favorite..I seek the valleys of my soul that there is poetry.:):)

Yes, we are all judged and we do judge others - there is truth and wisdom in your writing. I really like the power of the last line. A brilliant poem.

This poem really stunned me. I really felt the weight of each line. It felt like a wave yet gentle gush of emotions.
