Mirror Mirror

Because I love you, I won't let him touch you.

Because I love you, I won't let your eye be blue.

Because I love you, I will be strong to leave him behind.

Because I love you, I will open your eyes, you will no longer be blinded to his disguise. 

Because I love you, I will tell you, you're beautiful, important, worthy, and special. Just so he doesn't have to.

Because I love you, I will stomp my foot and say we are through.

Because I love you, I won't let his harsh words or vile hands harm you anymore.

Because I love you, I will look in the mirror and tell you things everyone else ignored.
