when you look in the mirror


When you look in the mirror,

What do you see?

Do you see something 

beautiful?

Or do you see something

disgusting?

 

When you look in the mirror,

How do you feel?

Do you feel 

proud?

Or do you feel 

gross?

 

When you look in the mirror,

What do you do?

Do you suck in

your stomach?

Or do you admire

your body?

 

I'll tell you what I see 

when I look in the mirror.

I see someone beautiful.

I see someone who should be proud of themself.

I see someone who is ambitious 

and amazing

and courageous

and smart.

 

Now look in the mirror

and tell me what you see
