Unpretty

I look in the mirror, what do I see?

Do I see the stranger looking back at me?

I look in the mirror, what do I see?

Do I see the un-pretty face that keeps smiling down on me?

I look in the mirror, what do I see?

Do I see the sadness and sorrow that keeps eating me?

 

I look in the mirror and I see the love that is deep inside of me

I look in the mirror and I see the friends that were always there for me

I look in the mirror and I see the beauty that was hidden right before the storm

 

I see the support and care

And my happiness everywhere

As I look in the mirror preparing for another day,

I look at myself and say,

“Damn, I look good today”
