Real Love


She looked in the mirror 

But she didn’t see 

The gorgeous girl

She had dreamed to be.

 

But he saw her and loved her 

With so much care

He loved her nose, her smile,

And especially her hair.

 

She loved him too,

But thought she wasn’t enough

Yet he loved her so much

Even when she looked rough. 

 

He not only saw what’s out 

But also what was within, 

She thought “wow that’s real love” 

She feels worth again.
