True Mirror

there
is a mirror
inside
your head
reflecting all
you've done
and said
presenting
the ugly
and the beauty
demanded in
a sense of duty
yet
your face
is not
what others see
but
a true heart
is the key
so
be careful
what you do
and say
for
it is
the image
you portray



"...the rest is silence" (Hamlet)       Shakespeare

Maybe it's the rain slowing me down today, but I had to read this three times before it worked in my head, and then, Eureeka! it said.
A TRUE mirror indeed.
Nice little write, Poet.
