Eyes.

I can't see them. I can't see myself from my view.

I don't like my view from a mirror. My voice and my body don't match.

"What do I do?", I ask myself.

The answer: I don't look a mirror. I don't worry about how others see me. I don't worry about how I look.

Inspire myself with time and ignore the truth.

I know the truth will come find me one day, but for now I'll focus on what I need to do and what I want to do.

I say to myself. "I'm not looking for another pair of eyes. I'm looking for my place in this world, not another crack in the plate. I'm too busy building a new plate to worry about new cracks. I want to add a bowl along with my plate."

So why am I worrying about these scratch like pains that'll heal when I can patch 'em up and move on to my real troubles?

Probably 'cause they're hard to forget and easier to notice.

*shake head*

That's not important. What's important is what you do after the scratching pains.
