The girl in the mirror
There’s this girl in the mirror, I wonder who she is.Sometimes I think I know her and sometimes I wish I did.There is a story in her eyes.....When she’s looking back at me I can tell...she’s hurting insideSometimes it is so hard to look in that mirror and see that person looking back at me. At times I can't even look at her...I see a person who is weak...a person who is so sad...a person who puts on a happy face for all the world to see while dying inside. A person who has lost her way...who bit by bit lost that person she once was...who allowed another person to take away her self-worth...a person who told her so many times that she was worthless, fat and ugly...a person who called her terrible names...a person who told she was lucky to have him because no other man could ever love her....sadly the words tore at her heart and she began to believe them...she began to believe her life was nothing...she lived for others and forgot about herself...she allowed another person to call her names..spit on her...destroy her personal belongings....push her around.....she never fought back because she believed it was her fault he treat her the way he did...if she was a better wife...if she was prettier...if she was skinnier....he would love her more..he would treat her better....she tried everything to make him happy but no matter what she did it was never enough...then one day she came to realize that things would never change...he could break her down and take away a big part of who she once was but he can't take away her hope...her will to live a happier, healthier life....she will get there.....THAT WOMAN IN THE MIRROR IS ME AND EVEN THOUGH AT TIMES SHE DOES STRUGGLE I LOV E HER...she's alright!!
