Interpret

Difference relevant 
various forms 
False measurements 
begin to form 
Shape shifting 
slowly creating 
An internal stranger 
no acquaintance 
Unfamiliar figure 
visions blurred 
Absent shadow 
wipe your eyes 
Fogged mirrors 
reflect unwanted imagery 
Who have i become?
Sweaty palms 
dry skin 
Bloodshot eyes 
dandruff hair 
Stubble beard 
look of despair 
Anger fills your mind 
false illusions 
Of the previous night 
leave a cloud of doubt 
One thing is certain 
and that is...... 
The "HOW"
before accepting fault 
You quickly engage 
telling yourself 
In the back of your mind 
it's not your fault
Keep playing the victim 
knowing your plenty capable 
Traumatic childhood 
left in the past 
Never realizing 
the importance 
It will have on the present 
the same childhood friend
That got you through it all 
 now is the biggest culprit 
Allowing your mind 
to pretend its never your fault
Imagination, always their 
to save the day 
Allowing yourself 
to procreate 
Thoughts of weakness 
ability to misdirect 
The tough conversations 
your favorite sidekick 
An all purpose tool 
for all occassions 
Especially the ones 
that put you on the spot 
Preventing yourself 
from overcoming the past 
Allowing you, to live a lie 
lets not forget 
Although its a small circle 
we both know damn well
Creativity shows up 
Imagination's favorite 
friend 
They saved you as youth 
kept your mind
off all the abuse 
They made being poor 
not seem so tough 
They got you through 
some really bad breakups 
Hell! they both 
were the majority 
of the responsibility 
For everytime 
a girl fell in love 
You expect me to believe 
these two childhood friends 
I have always been able 
to count on 
The very two 
that always had my back 
The very two 
No one could ever
take me from 
They have now transformed
allowing insecurities 
to be easier to hide 
All the training over the years 
were only suppressing 
Allowing me to avoid 
keeping me weak 
Allowing my mistakes 
always to be justified 
Things aren't always 
as they seem

Don't become 
that someone 
That will allow 
your past 
From preventing 
self-love 
Be someone 
that you will 
Not have to 
learn to love 
When you can 
GAURANTEE
THE REFLECTION
looking back 
Is exactly who 
You want to see 
Often its 
the in between 
That is literally 
the actual message 
We can't, always be
focusing on literal terms 
When we have 
STRONG MINDS 
to interpret what we see 
Into what it means 
Into what we believe 
and everything in between
INTERPRET
