The Mirror

I walk past it,

But I don’t want to look,

Because I can’t stand to see the person I am.

I’m not pretty enough,

I’m not smart enough,

I’m not thin enough,

I’m not slutty enough,

I’m not social enough.

I don’t know who I’m supposed to be,

And I don’t know what I’m supposed to do.

I just do what I think,

But I don’t know where I stand.

I don’t like the person I am,

But I’m getting to like the person I’m becoming.

She’ll be everything I want to be,

She’ll be the new reinvented me,

Because I can’t stand the way she is now.

I don’t care what people think,

I care what I think.

If I don’t like myself,

Then that’s a reason to change.

Love me or hate me,

I’m still going to be me.

So when you see this new girl,

The one I’m slowly growing into,

You’ll be surprised,

Because she’s full of confidence,

And she likes everything about herself.

I hope you love her smile,

Because she’s holding her head up from now on,

And her smile will always be placed on her face.

Even if she’s not enough for everyone else,

She’s going to be enough for herself,

And that’s all she cares about.
