Overview
Do we ever fully understand ourselves?
It seems like we know more about our neighbor, than our own self.
We pay attention to the haves, and have nots.
Cake miracle powder on our cheeks to hide the real blush.
Hide behind a screen hoping to find an answer to a question never asked.
What is this world we survive in?
In my few years of life I've felt more than I deserve. I've taken feelings from others, no not a parasite, but a predator.
I see it in everyone else, it's not just me that's the flaw, but everybody.

I like the idea that we don't know ourselves. We watch and know our neighbours more than we know ourselves.
