Vanity

Many worry of how to others they do appear Of their own self image they do live in fear Always concerned of what of them others might think or say The price for their vanity in this way they do pay Their vanity on their feelings does keep taking toll Though what others think or say of them is beyond their control Even into old age their extreme sense of self pride with them remain Perhaps it is a cross in life for them to bear those who are vain Always worrying of how they appear to others eyes But that they are mental prisoners of the judgemental they fail to realize It is a human flaw to be vain in truth one can say But then all of us are flawed in some sort of a way Human feelings are way beyond me to explain Only know it cannot be good for the mind to be vain.
