Reflection

For who do I see who stands in my reflection
For it is not the woman I used to be 
From inside to out I am now flowering
The judge is now myself I sit my own trials
A mind that was so drowned in tears of guilt
A guilt that was not mine to own but I wore it as a crown
No longer do I exsit in imagination alone
As now I live in my reflection in all reality
I now have found, some never find not even in their own mind
Lovers have lied I tryed to deny a pain I did not hide well
A side of me I now brake free for I do not have to please
I can tease my pleaser and be free as my spirit that does not hide
For it is me that I see in my reflection....
