Soul Vision

Claims calm and cool 
Yet the fire in his eyes explains it all 
His feelings, actions, wants, are wild
One look and you can feel the energy
He can see directly through you
Your soul remains solid
But he's knocking at the door, with words
Sharp, cut throat words
Can he break through?
It's happening
He lays out in front of you; facts, truth. Characteristics you obtain yet dont claim 
out loud. 
Characteristics you don't accept of yourself
You're shocked searching for words
Anything will do, what ever rolls off the tip of your tongue
He has opened you like a book. All the pages ripped out of this novel
Broken down to a short story
Stand before him startled
How does he do it?
He speaks the truth.
You're entire being, simplified by another
