Look In the Mirror
“LOOK IN THE MIRROR”
Look in the mirror and what do you see
A vision of the past and what you could be
Kind eyes that are filled with pain
Shelter yourself or go insane
Look in the mirror, do you love what is there
Do you have thoughts of betrayal, or an empty stare
Fighting your demons and the turmoil within
Have you lived a good life or was it all a sin
Look in the mirror, straight on or down
Do you see but a smile or a hurtful frown
Times gone by another wrinkle appears
drown yourself in sorrow, wash away your fears
Look in the mirror, a flash back from the past
Time on this earth seems to fly, it goes by so fast
Live life to the fullest as your time grows nearer
Enjoy what you have, each time you look in the mirror
