This mirror


This mirror has seen all of my.  
My smiling face filled with happiness.
My eyes sad with sorrow.
The hurt in my heart.
The glow of a beautiful day.
Tired sleep eyes
Eyes beaming with joy.

This mirror has reflected back pieces of me, 
and forced me to look.
I cannot hide from this mirror.
Always it is there like a trusty friend,
telling me to open my eyes and see the beauty that is before me.  

This mirror holds my secrets, 
whispers sweet nothings,
catches my fears,
and protects my heart.

This mirror has made me begin to see myself, 
embrace myself,
and love myself.

my mirror sometimes tells me I should just stay inside...that I'm a little too scary to go out in public...and when that happens, I listen !!!
