Never trust a mirror,
it only shows you what is skin deep.
You can't see how your eyelids flutter,
when you are drifting off to sleep.
It doesn't show you what the world sees,
when you are only being you.
Or how your eyes just light up,
when you are loving what you do.
It doesn't capture when you are smiling,
where no one else can see;
and your reflection cannot tell you
everything you mean to me.
Never trust a mirror,
for it only shows your skin,
and if you think it dictates your worth,
it's time you look within.
