Eyes of Truth

For the first time in my life,
I've been blessed with Eyes of Truth.
I'm freed from all the strife
That I have seen throughout my youth.

Until today I never knew,
What lies beneath the skin.
Appearances are never true,
And so I'll look within.

People are not as they seem.
Because we all wear masks.
To find that "someone" of my dreams
Has been no easy task.

Superficiality
Inherent in society
Has always been there telling me
That I should pursue vanity.

But now my eyes can truly see
What it means to have real beauty.
With Eyes of Truth I'll always be,
Looking at things differently.
