Mirror Mirror On the Wall

There you are across the room, a reflection I constantly try to avoid.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall you show me who I really am.

I look up and see, automatically

I'm disgusted

Why do we judge our self so harshly?

I see my face, so blemished with freckles.

My eyes too close, my nose to wide, and my forehead to long.

So fed up with this outward appearance, I begin to look beneath my skin.

Mirror, mirror on the wall show me who I really am.

Now when I look up, I see determination.

I see a soul and eyes full of love.

NO longer will I compare myself to the "image"

Now when I look in the mirror, I see nothing but beauty, because I know this is how the Good Lord made me.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall, thank you for showing me who I really am.
