The girl I see
Looks back at me
With eyes of crystal blue
She stares at me with a hidden smile
Yet I know it isn’t true

Her heart shaped face
And chestnut hair
Looks perfect to the touch
But behind her dimpled cheeks
Secrets are within her clutch

Dark lashes
shield her eyes
As if for her to say
I have stories deep within
And I haven’t found my way

And when I look
upon this girl
I realize the startling truth
This girl is a reflection
Of me in glory,joy and youth

I still see the girl everywhere I go
Though I decided to let her remain
But  at long last I could finally see
I no longer wanted to be,
That girl in the mirror looking back at me
