My Reflection

Whenever I look in the mirror,
I see someone not superior,
A man somewhat insecure.

What I ought to be,
Is far from what I see,
For who am I to be?

In the midst of my gloom,
Quintessence emerges soon,
In the mirror as it starts to be hewn.

I see a man in his purest form,
A being not inclined to conform,
To society's cultural norm.

In the mirror is a familiar face,
Someone true to himself,
It's my reflection that God wants me to see.
