Many poets have written about the reclaiming of our forgotten parts.

Poets such as Antonio Machado 
Don’t trace out your profile

Forget your side view-
All that is outer stuff.
Look for your other half
Who walks always next to you
And tends to be who you aren’t.

Narcissism
Is an ugly fault,
and now it’s a boring fault too.
But look in your mirror for the other one,
The other one who walks by your side.
Antonio Machado.
