Mirror, Mirror
Everybody is eye-catching
Until someone close to us
Says we are not.
Facing a mirror every day,
As no Snow White to ask
About the fairest in all the land.
Once looked down upon
By family, schoolmates, teachers,
Kids around the neighborhood,
And strangers out on the street.
Years until able to see
No matter of that public voice,
True adulation lays within.
