Reflecting Soul

Like a mirror, reflecting presence An image easily portrayed by beauty A soul carrying two faces One they live, other hidden in darkness Personality of emotions conflict or self being Who do we see this day exist Soul willing to kill or die friend Or heart do we carry upon chest Something real and rare felt Emotions hidden in depths beneath Mankind, perfection or demon ridden Who do we say we are that we not A different person of being than next You claim be better when you're not Living same life, same decisions weigh Til death do we part last breath That in our own we struggle existence Trying figure what makes us instead purpose What is purpose but a dreamers life One soul thriving to be apart Obscure from a world of deception illusion Reflecting soul, costume of many imagery We can be many things but only ourselves can one truly be Reflecting soul giving life in human form Only being circumstances of themselves We live portrayed greatest species ever But do we live our full potential Or waste it on a worldly being
