The Mirror Doesn't Reveal Everything


The Mirror Doesn’t Reveal Everything

By Pertina Smith

I look in the mirror

Just look

And look

And look

Look at my eyes

Look at my noes

Look at my face

When I look in the mirror I see a beautiful girl

But when God look at my face, he sees so much more

Maturity

Responsible

Beautiful

Women of God

Virtuous

Sweet

A sister

A leader

Faithful

Available

Teachable

Peace

God’s child

He sees so much more

I’m bright and smart

Stand out from other teens

And now I gotta say

I definitely see the God in me!!
