Mirror

by

Thomas Leatherbarrow

When you look in the mirror
Do you think that your grotesque
But if you were to look harder
you’d see your picturesque

There’s something that you’ve hoped for
Wanted and desired
There something that you’ve longed for
Dreamed of and aspired

It can be deceiving pull the wool over your eyes
It can take perfection and make it something to despise

If you looked past the minor flaws
And see what’s really there
See your inner beauty
brown eyes and golden hair
And the person that you really are
And the person you could be
If you’d only look a little harder
In the mirror you would see

NEXT?
Why don't you look at friendship
