Looking From Behind the Mirror

Looking From Behind The Mirror by Rick Rucker The image you see in the mirror, Is one you've built to conquer Fear. To yourself, you have lied, To prove it, go around the other side! You will see, it is a facade, Hardly more than a charade! How can you fix it, what can you do? First, to your own self be true! See your weaknesses as what they are, Defenses meant to hide a scar! Once you do this, in a minute The Game of Life, you can win it! You will overpower Fear, And see the World, now clear! It is never left too late, If a happy Life is your intended Fate!
