What I See


When I look in the mirror, 

I see more than a reflection. 

I see confidence. 

I see beauty. 

I see love. 

I see laughter. 

I see hope.

I see a friend. 

I see trust. 

I see me. 

Challenges, I have faced, 

But I battled through them.

I became the young woman I am today, 

Because I fought to become her. 

And I love her. 

Because she is me. 

And I am irreplacable.
