A Narcissistic View

I can only view myself through faulted vision.

An observation skewed and beaten by the ensuing pressures of peoples gaze, yet -I try to maintain self-regulation.

For if I cannot glance without criticism how will I exist through my own stares.

Though if I perceive and start to accept will I be viewed as narcissistic for simply possessing a speck.atom.shred.fragment of belief?

May I trace my scarred skin with acceptance or would that prove to be too self-assured?

This societal paradox will seemingly persist.
