I looked into the mirror
saw a shadow
I looked out into society
saw shadows
I observed the shadows
and knew there was nothing distinguished
it was no community of mine
because as I looked into society
I could not find myself
the looks of my community
is not as you’d think
I knew then, I was alone
yet still, I rejoiced
realizing, I could recognize my Self-
who I really am,
and all I ought to be!
