My Heart in a Mirror

Location

The reflection continues to change everyday

The days become longer and harder to handle

The voices in my head telling me to give up

I need to be strong, hold my head up high

My true intentions are never heard

The need to break free, is all that I need

My veins pump with hurt, love and pain

Will I ever be good enough?

I ask it everyday

My heart continues to beat deep into my soul

My soul is bursting all around

I am a woman

Fierce and proud

My heart beats loud and deserves its respect

My heart is truly flawless

My heart is truly me

HOW TO LOVE YOURSELF

Everyone you meet -
the ones that you avoid-
these people are your reflection.

See yourself as they see you,
Would you be welcomed or Rejected.

Never again,
we should feel unwanted
through strangers eyes
we see our true reflection.

And In those eyes-
looking back at you,
Do they see a tool to use?
Or do they see a weapon?

The Devil in the mirror you please,
the first you love.
the first you feed.

You put HIS WANTS
before your needs,
Cold are you,
and another hungry.

The stranger sees who you are,
The Devil in disguise,
who looks like you.

I was blind like most,
today I see,
with your eyes
my identity.

when we love a stranger,
we love ourselves,
Because in your eyes
I finally see me.
