Who Is That Girl In The Mirror! ! Poem by WENDY KAY TADDAY

I HATE THIS GIRL IN THE MIRROR, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START I SEE HER STARING BACK AT ME IN THE MIRROR I USED TO THINK SHE WAS SO SMART.
I GET UP EVERY MORNING JUST TO HEAR HER SAY YOUR UGLY, AND YOUR FAT, YOUR SUCH A HORRIABLE PERSON, BUT MOST OF ALL YOUR STUPID NO ONE WILL EVER LOVE YOU LIKE THAT…
THE COURAGE AND STRENGHT ARE WEIGHING IN MY SOUL
WHILE I KEEP PROMISING MYSELF AND HER THAT I WILL REACH A MUCH HIGHER GOAL
WE BOTH STARE AT EACH OTHER WITH A TEAR IN OUR EYE
WHILE THERE IS SO MUCH PAIN IN OUR HEARTS
WE TRY TO KEEP THAT SMILE EVEN THOUGH WE ARE FALLING APART
I ASK THE GIRL IN THE MIRROR WHY AM I SO SCARED?
MY HEART IS JUST ACHING.. IF PEOPLE EVEN KNEW HALF THE STUFF THAT GOES THREW MY HEAD THEIR HEART WOULD BE BREAKING
SHE SMILES BACK TO ME HOLDS HER HAND UP AND SAYS I AM HERE WITH YOU AND I ALWAYS WILL BE
WE HAVE TO PRAY TOGETHER TO GET THROUGH ALL OF THIS AND I KNOW IF WE KEEP ON PRAYING A MIRICLE WILL HAPPEN
AND I WILL START TO LIKE THAT GIRL IN THE MIRROR AGAIN.
I LOOK IN THE MIRROR AGAIN I HEAR WENDY YOU LOOK AT ME I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE ON THE OUTSIDE BECAUSE YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL ON THE INSIDE.. YOU ONLY GET ONE CHANCE IN LIFE AND OF COURCE OUR LIFE IS FULL OF BATTLES THAT MAY SEEM UNFAIR
BUT DON'T YOU DARE JUST SIT THERE AND POUT AND ACT LIKE YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT CARES
I KNOW WHO I WANT TO BE
IT'S A MUCH BETTER WIFE AND MOTHER
ITS ALL SO MUCH CLEARER, BUT THE FACT OF LIFE IS
ITS ME
I AM HER THAT GIRL IN THE MIRROR, , , ,
