The Mirrored Image

the image I see
reflections of a façade
believed to be true
by those that I meet
you should have looked much deeper

"You would have seen true" :) Felt inspired to add this one line, just to complete 5-7-5 syllable count and thus complete the poem, which I liked very much. We do show facade and we hope that someone we care about we look deeper and find the true person, but why not show the true person? Thanks for sharing. Caroline.
