Mirrors do not reflect what we see in ourselves,
We criticize the worst and wish for the best,
Our worst qualities put on a pedestal, we criticize ourselves,
Only seeing the negative, always thinking we are less.
Our love for ourselves is like falling leaves,
We love others but the love for ourself is crumpled,
We don't give ourselves the love everyone else receives,
To compliment ourselves isn't in, we are too humble.
The mirror doesn't display the real you,
who you are, where you've been,
how beautifully unique and resilient you are too,
loving yourself will make you healthier and happier now and then.
Pat yourself on the back,
Look in the mirror with a smile,
Project the love the world lacks,
Love yourself completely, it will be worth while.
