On The Mirror's Edge Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

There is a point where ego is shattered
And reality is wiped clean
At this point, the self is displayed
All weakness and strengths palpated
And the constructed reality enhanced
Or totally destroyed
It's at this point
When you have to choose
To put on the mask
Or let go of your ego
To see the truth
Or to manufacture the lies
To marvel at the beauty of your soul
Or to revile your very own existence
It's at this point where your spirituality undergoes a litmus test
And your ego is either nourished or shredded
It's not necessary
To judge yourself
You only need to appreciate your existence
And celebrate your life
It doesn't matter
Who you are and how you are
Or what you do for a living
On the mirror's edge
You can choose to see your true self
