Look into the mirror


Alot of times we often feel stuck 

with no place to go, run out of luck. 

We look and we feel were worthless people

its then that we cry out at empty church steepels. 

Instead of crying out with anguish and pain

lets take a looke at what we can change.

did you know that perception comes from you

that you have the power to control what you do. 

If i could change one thing, it would be perception

because we often use it for judgement instead of reflection. 

instead of reflecting on what could possibly go right.

we focus on the ugly, pain and the strife. 

So while i struggle wiht mirrors and what they show

its time to break the mirror, time to let go. 

of what we have perceived to be the right perception

and realize that its our own judgemental reflection. 

time to look up and realize that were gold 

and that nothing can damage the beauty we mold.
