The Woman Within

The emerging truth separated from falsehood
How well do you really know me?
Have you seen the unseen side of me?
The soul is pure
The heart is good
The silver lining to a black cloud!
To be or not to be the woman whom you believe to be
The subjectivity of human perception
Can one acknowledge the subjectivity of your true feelings for me?
How does subjectivity decide your true feelings?
Can objectivity observe and measure the transparent truth within?
Are your findings conclusive?
The MRI will decipher my soul’s purity
Is it a toss-up?
Look deeper
How well do you know my character?
See through the unfiltered lens
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts
The woman within is an enigma
