image is everything
the mirror is a dirty little liar
i have been told
but to me, the mirror is more truthful
than i will ever be
because what i see is
the little girl
who was so bright
the little girl
who was changed one night
the little girl
who had to grow up too early
that little girl
is now a woman
who can't look others in the eye
who can't let anyone too close
who is scared of love
who is scared of life
who is scared
of
herself
