In
The Mirror
I
stand and look at the face I see
Wondering
who would ever love me.
Ghost
from the past seem everywhere I go
It
seems to me everyone will know
A
beckoning light shines far away
Giving
me hope so I won't stray
Keeping
my faith and steadily tread
Don't
look back-keep my eyes straight ahead
But
I'm not as alone as it may seem
For now I know there are many like me
Their
dreams were shattered
Their lives torn apart
For not keeping their place
Not
playing their part.
Learning
to like what the mirror reflects
Keep
my chin up and have no regrets
For
believing in me is the first step I take
Thinking
first of me and never forsake
A
new life to build
A new refection to see
I'm beginning to like the new face of me
