My Poems

Reality

What do you see when you look at me?

Do you see someone that you don’t want to be?

Because every-time you see me, you turn away from me.

Little do you know what you see that you don’t like in me,

one day could be you.

Is it the way I look and the way I sound?

Please understand that what you do can and will hurt you.

Because it will come back to you.

Maybe not now, but trust me one day it will

And then people will look at you,

the same way you are looking at me.
