A poem about people telling you who are you are and what you should be in life but in reality the only that person who knows you is you.

Wake up in the morning My reflection staring back at me The person I know so best Yet the least I cannot see Lines around me eyes Wrinkles from the smile Projected shadow of the past Walks with me each mile Some say that they know me Yet who just I cannot trust When the tears I’ve shed Erode the heart to rust Who Am I? Who are you to judge? For everything you don’t know This is just my grudge Advice is given often Yet it bounces in the ears Fake smile and nods of heads Mechanical for years Lines around me eyes Wrinkles from the smile Projected shadow of the past Walks with me each mile For there is only one who knows me The one I cannot test My personal reflection The one that I trust best For everyone is a voice Yet that’s the difference My voice is internal The perfect patience

A perfect poem for making sure that we love ourselves first. That mirror may tell us that we are changing physically, but it's the attitude that needs to be freed from doubt. The more we open up to the possibilities as we change, the better off we are.

Thanks for reminding all of us who are aging. In my case, well beyond what I thought I ever would.
