Reflection of You
Looking in the mirror
Is this dark image true
Your look is deceiving
It doesn't reflect you
In search of protection
Appearance you neglect
You look for reactions
You've learned what to expect
Who will see the real you
Beneath the tattooed skin
Your outward appearance
Hides the spirit within
You don't wish to be hurt
You've experienced too much
If someone sees beyond
There is a heart to touch
