Blazing squinting eyes
all around;
that watchful shadow
keeps sidling behind.
He bound himself with fetters
of sneering looks,
and opinions, if only he'd see,
so vulgar.
The soul attire of conduct
and uttered words,
reflected but sham image
of the inside.
He scrutinized his portrait
in the looking-through glass,
but could not recognize the one
he had become.
He perceived he lived more
for others,
suppressing and profoundly hiding
his dreams;
that insipid life did
fade away
when he'd unleashed
his real core.

Look in the mirror, if you don't get surprised, then you're well on your way. However...find your soul.
