She knew better
Really, she did
But t that didn’t always matter
When she looked in the mirror
She found herself comparing
Who she was to who she wasn’t
She saw flaws instead of beauty
And she was so cruel to herself
She spoke words to the reflection
That she wouldn’t say to anyone else
It became a daily thing
As she gave in and became
Her own worst enemy
Instead of her own best friend
She was getting used to being cruel to herself
But then the day came
When she looked at the mirror and saw
Her daughter gazing back at her
Eyes wide open
And she saw the mirror image
Who she was and who she would be
How could she be cruel to herself
When she had someone that looked almost exactly the same
The words she started to say
Begin to change
She couldn’t be cruel to herself
When she saw herself through the eyes of God
and saw her own little girl.
