My Mirror


When you look in the mirror, what do you see?

Without a filter or PhotoShop, who are you really?

You see, the pressure to look a certain way

Has made the importance of inner beauty go astray. 

When you look in the mirror, what do you see?

I don't know about you but I see what could be

Would be

Something amazing.

Something hell raising.

No makeup, no edits,

Natural beauty to credit.

When you look in the mirror, what do you see?

When you look in the mirror, who can you be?

When you look in the mirror, find it.

That one thing, just one, that makes you feel free.
