the mirror

and so she learned to smile, and nod...
this isn't me-she said
as she stared into the mirror
at her own set of hazel green eyes
maybe a touch of eyeliner would help.
No, still not me, she thought-
and wondered-
had she lost her soul forever

no, her soul is timeless.
but on a fashion note, what eyeliner goes with exceptionally beautiful hazel green eyes anyway?

Heatherly, I can absolutely relate to this one. She has not lost her soul, but she has lost her self. She needs to run as fast as she can to the nearest exit and retrace her steps way back to who she was BEFORE she fell into a mold that society created for her. Nurture that previous being and learn to be a chameleon when necessary, but escape back to the natural origin and relax there each day. I am learning this one after many years of "eyeliner". It is a welcome relief to have figured it out.
