Reflection

Behind the filters I am an ordinary girl

trying to live different in a wicked world 

 

Full of hidden flaws from deep within

Battling insecure thoughts that lead to sin 

 

Fighting constantly against who the world see me as

The war rages on in my mind I wanna be me without a mask 

 

Truly loving myself is an uphill road that I  never seem to win 

I struggle with the skin I'm in trying to see myself the way God sees me in the end 

 

When I look in the mirror I wanna see the realness of me 

Not a simple reflection of the ideal girl that the world wants to see

 

Trying to please people was such a burden to carry

But the feelings of not being accepted was also scary

 

Now that I'm older I can see clearer since I am mature 

For the race is given only to the ones that will endure

 

I finally realize that being myself is the best thing I can be Because there's no one that could ever be better at being me!
