Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Reflect to me my deepest flaws,
But also show me my beauty within,
Let me see the world through your lens.
Your surface shines like liquid glass,
But holds a power mighty and vast,
You show the truth without a filter,
Your gaze makes me feel like a quitter.
You see the scars that I conceal,
The wounds that I try to heal,
But in your reflection, I see,
That they are what make me truly me.
Your edges framed in golden hue,
Hold the secrets that I keep from view,
You know my thoughts, my desires,
You see through all my inner fires.
Sometimes I fear to look at you,
For I am afraid of what you'll show,
But then I remember, it's just a reflection,
And I must learn to love my imperfections.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Do you see my heart's true call?
Do you see the love that I hold,
For the world, for the young, for the old?
Do you see my tears that fall,
When I feel like I've hit a wall?
Or do you see the determination,
To rise up and conquer any situation?
You hold the power to make or break,
But in the end, it's my choice to take,
Your words may sting, but I'll stand tall,
For I am more than just a mere reflection on a wall.
You've seen me at my highest highs,
And at my lowest lows, you've heard my cries,
But yet, you remain my constant companion,
Reflecting back all my fears and my passions.
I often wonder, do you ever tire,
Of seeing me, the same face, day after day,
But then I realize, you do not judge,
You simply show me what I need to acknowledge.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
You see beyond my outward sprawl,
You see the soul that resides within,
And that gives me the strength to win.
In a world that's obsessed with perfection,
You remind me of my unique reflection,
In a world that's quick to criticize,
You show me how to love and be wise.
So, mirror, mirror on the wall,
I thank you for showing me it all,
For without your honest gaze,
I would be lost in the world's maze.
You may be just a piece of glass,
But to me, you are much more than that,
You are my friend, my confidant,
In you, I see my own enchantment.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
You have helped me stand tall,
For in your reflection, I see,
The truest version of me.
So, I'll continue to gaze into your depths,
And learn to love all my secrets and defects,
For you have taught me that true beauty,
Lies not in perfection, but in authenticity.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
You are more than just a piece of glass,
You are a symbol of self-love and acceptance,
And for that, I will forever be grateful.
