When I look in the mirror
Who do I see?
Do I see the scar under my left brow?
Do I see the blemish forming under my chin?
No.
But do I see large beautiful brown eyes?
Do I see high cheekbones?
I am not the numbers on the scale
I am not the numbers on the ruler
I am not the number on my test
I am not the number that determines my breast
I am the one who is beautiful
I am the one who is happy
I am outgoing
I flow with the air
but I slow down
I am not a clown
when I'm bright
I shine like the sun.
