Do I see myself?

 

Why do I look at others,

 and why don’t I see myself?

 

Why do I wonder what’s out there,

and I don’t look at myself?

 

Why do I know the world so well,

and I don’t know who I am?

 

Is it because?

 

My eyes can never look at me

And they can look only outwards

 

I can’t see who I am

But I know who others are

 

I see how others should live

But I can’t figure out my own life

 

I know how to solve other’s problems

But I can never practice what I preach

 

I can help the world

But I can’t help myself

 

It is not my fault I can’t see myself

I was designed to look only at others

 

This is why I don’t see myself
