This is My Profile Picture
By RubyXero
.......
A blast of you
Personality at first impression.
The jekyll and hyde.
This is how we define ourselves.
Or how we wish to be defined?...
....
This is me.
I can stare into my own eyes
held,
for hours; so close.
But when she searches
these doorways
she catches that lifeless glaze
this frozen distance
in my blank doll face.
{(Behind that smirk my dear
that mask
I see that sadness (subtle)
Agony (intensity)
...I have to look away ----
..................
I have to stop.............
(To be continued...))}
*This piece marks the end of a notebook, and we know how that can be* :D

That's a really cool idea. Not only can you look back and see where you've been but in many ways you can choose where you go. Second stanza hit close to home.

Firstly thats a perfect title for such a memoir,.. it really did speak rather than read,...a confessional of ones self thats rarely witnessed by another,.. courageous thing you are,.. make that a super sized kudos,... well done.
