Mirror Mirror
Mirror mirror
No, not the one on the wall
Not the one in the bathroom
Not the one in the hall;
But the one i see before me,
See it's not a mirror at all...
But another beautiful person
Whose scars are obvious to me
What they lack where they went wrong
All that they could be if theyd just be
Who they were meant to be
If theyd just let the what-ifs go
If they could just let the bygones be.
No Im not perfect but id never do that if it were me!
So swift to say id do this
Never would do that
Then all of a sudden im caught in this something
With thousands of ppl whose lives are reflections of me
The girl who i yearned to be,
The girl who i once said would never be me.
The guy of my dreams so perfect he seemed
Until he too began to reflect me.
A soul whose heart had been broken
Defensive in every way to make sure she didnt hurt he
And vice versa.
Now i found myself within a circle,
Of mirror images, beautiful reflections of me
Gifted people
Through faith they'd be set free.
My brothers all chosen for great deeds
Not accomplished easily
My sisters all more beautiful than any girl
You have ever seen in this world
Going through things within love the same
With guys whose reflections they've seen
Forgive and excused because we too can understand the defensiveness of thee
But to show love you've gotta respect
To be loved you've gotta let your spirits free
Holding on to grudges
Weighing your heart down
Remembering to wear a frown
Around a certain he or she
What a waste holding a grudge turns out to be.
Emotional.
Mirrored.
Easily broken into millions of pieces.
