The mirror was distorted.It warped the real view.It made her wide, feel gross inside.And everything untrue.
Every day she looked at it
And saw inside the mirror
One big mistake, something fake.
Reflecting back her tears.
Everytime she saw herself
Inside the dangerous mirror
She saw only the evil things
That intensified her fear.
Stupid, ugly, sad, unloved.
The mirror seemed to scream.
Hopeless, worthless, always less.
Nightmares haunted dreams.
The mirror distorted her whole being.
But she kept looking on.
Wondering what else to do
To stop being so wrong.
One day she decided that,
Instead of looking out,
She wanted to look inside and
Take a braver route.
So instead of looking at the mirror.
She looked inside her heart
And saw a girl trying so hard
To be good, be apart.
A girl who wanted laughter, love,
To just do what was right.
A girl who failed, but who still sailed
The seas of searching light.
What if I said that the old mirror
That distortes the view
Was placed inside your very eyes
And warped your sight of you.
Putting aside that horrid thing,
And looking with cleared eyes
Might help you see, how beautifully
You're doing with your lives.
