My eyes are mere windows
With which I watch the world,
My face is but a mirror,
Behind which I hide my soul.
Charm me not into believing
That I am anything more than that
Let my dreams not become bigger
Than something I am not.
Treat me kindly, still
Lest I shatter into pieces
Jagged edges burying
Into your neoprene soul.
Take me as I am, if you can
Complicated yet true
All my failings, all my doubts
Too prevaricated to construe.

yes, but not to everybody…. everyone cannot take it! Guess what I am saying is that sometimes we have to hide our deepest selves for those we love.

So beautifully written Ipsita.
But hey, you hide your soul beneath a mirror and ask to be accepted as you are. You need to bare your soul too, no?
Cheers,
