REVEALING

Revealing

The unknown,

the truth wrapped in shadows,

the self we hide behind reflections—

and the best one of all:

the hidden self,

“known.”

The way we reflect,

the mirror that whispers

more than faces,

more than the surface.

It reveals truths

we fear to see—

shadows of who we are,

glimmers of who we might become.

Revealing isn’t in the looking.

It’s in the seeing—

the moment we choose

to face what hides

and embrace

what shines within.

What is hidden is never lost;

it waits quietly,

ready to be found.
