Mate! take your eyes off yourself

 
Mate!  
take ya eyes off yourself
there's so much to admire!
 
There's your partner
too busy caring
and might sound cliche'
sharing
there's beauty in her
and there's beauty
about her
ever thought of  
turning your back
to the mirror  
and cuddling up
to the figure
behind your image  
in the mirror and
in the society.

The one too busy
to do her hair
looking after you
and the kids
yes, she's the one
who once used to spend
hours
getting ready to meet
the one
infront of the mirror
right now.
 
Then there are  
your mates,
who've been there
with you  
who've wiped more than
their fair share
of  
both mud  
and blood
off
your face.
 
and the list goes on buddy..
to make a long story short,
let's just say
you are  
but one beautiful thing
of many
that make up this world
the beautiful place it is.
 
So next time  
you've done your daily routine
with the blade,
remember
to trim your mirror time
not just
your overgrowth
