Mirror

To the girl in the mirror,

I’m starting over.

I’m saying goodbye to the lack of pride I felt inside

Goodbye to the loathing I brought

and the self-hatred I fought

 

I will no longer look at you in disgust.

I’ll look at you and smile

Because even though I know I walked

I still finished a mile

 

I know that this isn’t the end

and the little voice will stay in my head

whispering things that are fake

and trying to make me break

 

But make no mistake, I am strong

and I know I belong

So I’m saying goodbye to the self-hate

and hello to the pride I lost inside

 

And to the girl in the mirror,

you are BEAUTIFUL

and it couldn’t be clearer
