Today I was the other guy
I watched myself as I walked by,
Today I got a chance to see
What others saw as I watched me,
Today truth opened up my eyes
As I stood with the other guys
I received the words today,
That thoughtlessly I toss away,
As I stood with the other guys
And truth stared back into my eyes
Beneath the candor of my touch
I wasn’t sure I liked me much
I got my own advice today,
I could not turn and walk away,
As I stood with the other guys
And watched me through a stranger's eyes
And watched me through a stranger's eyes
I blush a little now in shame
As I hear me speak my name
I used to wish that I could see
Perhaps, what others thought of me,
But now as I am standing here
I wish that I could disappear
Today I opened up my eyes
As I stood with the other guys

Another attempt at the Anaphora Poem
def eye opening to really understand how other perceive us you know...def gives us insite into who we really are as opposed to who we believe we are...
ReplyDeleteIt definitely is enlightening when we try to look at ourselves as other people see us! This was fun.
