The Mirror and I
Mirror, Mirror, on the wall,
Why, oh, why, can't I be tall?
Straight hair is but a fleeting dream
I'm always last picked for every team
I wish I could be lithe and fair,
but wait, is that chocolate over there?
My mirror shows me what it thinks I am
But that's just its opinion; I know better what I am
Someone with a loving heart,
Love so unconditional, no matter how far apart
Who spends their time watching Doctor Who,
but is always willing to say Allons-y, too.
A friend that sticks closer than a brother,
but also worries like your mother.
So, Mirror, Mirror, on the wall,
It matters not what names you call.
I'll still be the fairest of them all.
