What do you see

You look at me and see a reflection of an image

An image based on assumption

Assumption based on stereotype

A stereotype based on insecurities


I look at you and see a person

A person with a unique life

A life with a complicated past

A past with a promising future

 

We look at each other

You judge I wonder

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
