I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

Poem Summary

What do you see is a poem describing how many of us hide our real self like we are trapped inside a mirror. We reach for dreams we can not touch instead of looking at what is right in front of us.

"I See You" by Luke Bryan

Trapped

within a mirror,

no where can we roam.

We travel through life

surviving

upon a dream,

instead of seeking

our inner soul.

We hide inside

a secret place

grasping

what we can not touch.

Instead of allowing

our eyes to see

the true reflection

of what is there.

"Right in Front of You" Official Audio, by Celine Dion
