L

Mirror, mirror

You reflected weaknesses to me
While others could not see
But you came in with claws
You exposed all my flaws
People pretend to be blind
By treating me so kind
They laughed behind me
Or can they really not see
Tried to disguise entirely
I cringed at my reflection
In me there was no perfection
I was fine but not completely
Coz I faced you every day
I pretended to be okay
Till I learned to embrace
Things I couldn't erase
And I've found peace within
It was the best place to begin
To accept what is permanent
And to live every moment
