Looking in the Mirror

When I look in the mirror
I see a short girl
With big long legs
Eyelahes too long
I see a girl
With a big nose
And dry sensitive hands
I see a super shy girl
Too quiet
I used to not like looking in the mirror

But then when I look in the mirror
I see a girl
With long legs
Pretty eyelashes
I see a girl
With an alright nose
And my sesitive hands
I see a brave girl
Whos been through a lot
I see someone who can't be walked over
And will speak when she wants to
I now like looking in the mirror

Now when I look in the mirror
I see a perfect girl
With long hair and eyelashes
Long flexible legs
A good nose
I see a girl
With my hands
A girl whos been through so much
A brave unpredictable girl
With painted nails
Makeup
And stylish clothes
I see my nice glasses
And I smile seeing my braces
I now love looking in the mirror

  • Today's Fears

    Teens are afraid
    We worry
    Do I look okay?
    What do they think of me?
    We obsess over how we look
    We worry that we're not thin enough
    We think we need to be skinny and perfect to fit into todays society 
  • In the distance

    In the distance
    Lies a magical fantasy land 
    Where objects talk 
    And dragons fly
    Where dreams come true
    The clouds are cotton candy
    The trees are made of chocolate 
    It's an escape from reality
  • As the Sun Begins to Rise

    As the sun begins to rise
    The birds stretch their wings and wake everyone up with their singing
    The foxes and wolves yawn and stretch
    Ready to look for their next meal 
    As the sun climbs the sky
