Your perfect reflection reflects yourself
richly in the manner we’ve become accustomed –
you’re welcome thank you -- but you must allow
we who watch and wail our own lessening
to fold our arms.

You may clothe yourself in model fashion.
Yes, you are welcome to wear any
and all of us in model apparel
and yes we are unclothed in your boudoir.
If you fall in love with Narcissus
perhaps we the unwilling will fall in love
with your honest pith.

You may lead us as far as we follow
with unfolded arms.  You may lead us
to where we follow our own selves further
than the manner to which you’ve become accustomed.

I'm unclear as to who "you" is?

Kathleen
nickname "Kay"
also wrote as The Lady of Shallot
"be true to yourself"
