Perspective

Perspective I stand In front of the mirror hoping my eyes will see the through the lenses of someone else's view of me I lock eyes with my external self My soul wants to step out but my body holds it back If eyes are the window to the soul why can't I see it? I take off my glasses The magnifying glass of social media slips through my fingers and shatters at my feet I step away from my telescopic mind- The glass crunches underfoot I slowly feel freedom falling Stop searching Close your eyes See nothing Think nothing Kill the stress that flows through your thoughts and veins every minute See life through new lenses Let your mind be detoxed Flush out those thoughts Open your eyes to see yourself for who you are Forget what they think No one knows you like you So you do you and I'll do me Take a moment Step back see your life from a different perspective Perspective
