I stare at a reflection sound but confused.

I see this homely image tracking my every move.

I look back, I look forth, and it's still there.

I criticize the idiosyncrasies and imperfections unaware.

The battle between what I see and what I reflect,

glances unsatisfaction beneath my breath.

Compliments achieved

only raises doubts of this alluring portrait of artistry.

The judgments are of divine,

But my diffidence unconsciously denies.

It is a conflict that attacks the inner being,

Vague and responsible as it can be

to achieve success in downgrading humanity

to the point of concealing the beauty seeded from within.
