Looking in the mirror wondering what am I looking at
What do I see? How do I feel? Will there be change in the way I look?
Depression brings the worse in me, makes me feel lonely, hurt, unwanted in the world.
Thinking to myself what’s my purpose in life? Why am I here? What do I symbolize in God’s eyes?
Wondering when beauty is going to show through this mirror,
Every time I look in the mirror I shed a tear,
Wondering when is the look going to change
Hoping that things don’t stay the same.
Overtime I see that I still look the same
Wondering why God’s creation haven’t change
Realizing that I need to appreciate what remains the same.
From now on I see what I have been missing within myself,
Figuring out who I really am. Now when I look in the mirror,
I see intelligence, bravery, and a warm smile on face
That brings happiness and grace. Appreciation of yourself is a celebration,
To know that you are God’s gift and creation.
