(do you understand this poem?)

   Internal mirror

Meaningless and unthought-of of is my life. No need to continue living. I make an effort to reach out to others. Yet I am unheard. I just stand compared and viewed as obsolete. Tired of trying to cope with a meaningless lie. Subconsciously, I create an impenetrable shield in the shape of a personality so you can’t see me. So I can never be determined by who I truly am. I continue telling myself “they don’t see me!” to excuse myself from reality. I become mysterious. My disguise is perfect. I am who I say i’m not, I’m not who I say I am. It is so perfectly harmonized with my unknown self. I subconsciously am appalled by who I am. I reframe from looking into my internal mirror that breaks with every glance I take. I am ugly, disgusting, unique, beautiful, and alone. I cry tears of blood; so painful, dark tears, Yet , so ugly and beautiful they are so perfectly and aligned with who I am internally. Nevertheless, my life means nothing since I am the only one who is aware of its existence, But I cannot speak of it or even see who I am myself, Because of who I am. I am the broken internal mirror, The shield that protects me from the outside world, I am myself.

Answer #4

The reader’s take on it will always be different from that of the authors.

You’ve become so caught up in the maze of your barriers trying to keep others out, yet still hoping for someone determined enough to break through to see you, it feels you’ve lost yourself in your own shrouds. You’ve harbor discussed with what you become, this outer barrier knowing it’s not you. You dig deep to find yourself, and keep yourself behind walls so others can’t see, and to perhaps preserve yourself in some since, to prevent being tainted. And await for someone true to find you. At least that’s how I interpret it, perhaps I read to deep though. I’ve a tendency to do that.

A friend read it, this is what she interpreted

I think its about believeing in your own fascade by looking in the mirror but also having a mask protect you from others
