take time to look at the girl in the mirror
how, more than anything in the world she's sweeter.
Yet, for all her beauty, she's still somehow bitter.
Yes, take a look at her shes there in the mirror.

Often times you act like you do care,
yet what you do to her is cruel & unfair
she treks through life , ever scared.
hoping that, you her friend would be there.
Yet you turn your back and leave her shamed.

On a clean slate , you started the journey.
Free and safe from turmoil & tiranny.
Together, you would soar on glorious wings.
You natured beautiful thoughts and ambitiuos dreams.
you gave her the courage to know and believe,
that whatever she sought , she would receive.
that's how at first, it was a journey of intrigue.

When the pressure of life ,began to rise.
She felt deep inside to have believed a lie.
she was unsure and untold, that all was not lost.
but did you reassure her , of your love at any cost?
Of all the things she counts as a loss,
your love is what she misses the most.
the very words and acts you endlessly avoid,
are what she needs to regain her joy.

She is hurting , because they never accept her,
but even their acceptance can never appease her.
She agonises, because of the dispiteful words,
but no sweet words can ever change her world.
Without the love you have cruelly deprived
she forever cowers as a troubled child.

Take a look at her she's right there in the mirror.
You should have said that shes a winner,
then she would not have felt defeated.
you should have found the beauty in her
because now, she only drowns in tears
when she chases her dreams, she falters
because her deepest needs, aren't your focus
even when she has labours to her best,
but she never gets to pass your test,
because you drive her to perfection
and further in doubt you immerse her.
She doesnt even know herself anymore,
since you call her names she barely knows
you pile insults against her mistakes,
now she knows not which risks to take.

Take a look at her , she is in the mirror
Love & heal her, before she sinks deeper.
She's your very first love, your very own soul.
Your heart beat, your shadow & your substance
Come now, and be her pillar
And surely, all her days would be sweeter
In all her ways, victory will be nearer.
