Look Within Poem by Chrishtiana Reed

Look Within

Rating: 3.3


what do people see when they look at me? ? This is the question that goes through my mind all the time. Do they only see what's on the outside or do they see whats deep within?

If they could see deep within, they would see all the pain i really in, they would see the marks that people left on me when they hurt me, they would see everything that i have been through. They would see the truth. Not the lie i'm putting on for all those to see.

So tell me me what you see, tell me what you see when you look at me. Do you see whats on the outside or do u see deep within? ? ? please, please tell me what you see.

I have wondered this myself. Many people don't see what's on the inside, they only judge people by what they look like and what they do. They usually don't try to find out what's on the inside of a person's heart. Don't stop writing. Your poems are really good.

the poem depicts the truth about what we perceive in everyday life and what people really are, great work!

I was recently called a f.ing racist by a 14-year-old girl, which was set up, I think by my criticism of her too-rosey take on life. Evidently she has experienced nothing but treasures. I called her a 'brat', admittedly, then promptly banned her. You, on the other hand, have the polar opposite take, and I could identify with this poem at a gut level. It is quite good.
