Looking
When I sit in my room,
I love to watch and look.
Reading my skin from head to toe,
Like words from the pages of a book.
Just looking, however, I don't get to see
What really rests within.
The love in my heart and the wit in my soul
The smirk that results from my sin.
I have the grin, the smile, the smirk
But do I have the humour?
I think I'm developed and oh-so sound
But I quake at every rumour
Fat and muscle hide and empty inside
My brain is void and through.
The only thing that I have left
Is the pretty vision of you.
I am a whole and yet unwhole
Without the thought of us.
Life is worth nothing, and everything too-
But surely not this fuss?

I have suffered with depression for several years and sometimes I think about how little I really know myself. This is the result of that.
