See Me, See You

See me... When you saw me, what did you see? When you think of hope, what do you see? If you consider peace, What do you see? Stand against the mirror and face the reflection. Everything you see stares right back at you. What you did before is the reflection that now haunts you every day. Your reflection constantly mocks you. They are your worst enemy. I see you...I can tell you what I saw. I thought of hope and saw many smiles. I considered peace and saw men achieve it. To face the mirror is to face your thoughts. An individual has thought which displays their feelings. The emotion of your heart and intentions of your mind are displayed in the reflection. See me... See you. The difference in our minds. The variance of emotion in our hearts. Everyone is different as an individual is independent of the crowd.
