My mirror, my reflection

Who I am and what I look like 

Stares back at me

The mind is a mirror of our thought

When I look into the mirror

I see the real me

I see a woman who has managed

To gain a little confidence

A girl who is scared 

Of what tomorrow may bring

Would it be bad?

Would it be good?

Only God knows

When I look into the mirror

I see scars of my past

Only hoping the future will be better

I do not forget the good times though

I give thanks to God 

For sparing my life

My mind is a mirror 

One that reflects my thought

Both the good and bad ones

It's a place I can be 

Anything I desire 

It's where my darkest secrets

Have been buried

Where there is nothing

But who I am.
