The Mirror Showed Poem by Sean Green

The mirror showed another face
beauty hidden is now revealed
with a sharp contrast to the old
it's still me after all
tint diverged from my own
with the gender close behind

each a difference I can't dispute
as my heart was resolute
to convince a larger world
convey an image now my own
a transformation I can't ignore
with outward to be observed

this was a symbol of myself
comeliness now expressed
asking for consciousness
of potential I could express.
