Through what lens
and
From where
Have you sourced
the notion
You have
Come to know
All there is
Of another?
If honest
It would be
Evident
There are
Riddles
Concerning
Your own
Being
That
Embody
More questions
Than answers....
If the face
In the mirror
Is continually
Presenting
As an enigma...
Not a problem
To be solved
But to be
Sure...
A multi-faceted
Mystery
How likely
Is it
That
You successfully
Managed
To crack
The code
Or another?
Presuming to know
Their
Heart and Soul
Even
If once
You
Were granted
A glimpse
Consider
The limitations
Imposed..
If
One presumed
That which
Was revealed
Holds fast
Forever more
Consider
The suffering
You have
Created
For yourself
As long
As
You held
Yourself
Exiled
Within
Imagery
Comprised
Of
Stifling constriction
Nobody
Can insist
That you
Release yourself
However
There doesn't
Exist
Justifiable cause
Or
A
Willing soul
That
Would
Knowingly
Choose
To be confined
In
The prison
Of your
Projections
You
May feel
"Safer"
Facing
A "known" enemy
Only
To discover
There
Is no
Peace
To be
Found
While much
Has been
Lost
While engaged
In
Combat
With shadows
And
Insubstantial fabrication
