Tethered To My Mind

underneath

This vessel is not something I should detest,

but it is not what I like best.

It does not significantly express what's inside,

I do not look into the mirror with pride.

I close my eyes and see strength and intelligence.

Though, the image of my physical self, is not nearly as intense.

How could something so small hold something so powerful?

It leads the others to look at me, and feel quite doubtful.

I assure them there is much more about me,

but how could I do so, when my body is not my personality?
