Woman In the Mirror

I look into this mirror 
What do i see ...its me 
A dance to the image 
Young woman beauty in mime

I see a world of dreams 
A world of expressions
A life time of lessons 
I will not hide from affection

Did i mention I look into the mirror
What do i find ...yes its me
Pounding of my heart
My life is about to start

Years too many have died
Inside I cried
Outside i lived a lie
Untill my silent scream died

Same mirror i look into
But now a woman alive 
With fire running through her veins
Not sure what i will find

Now time will tell
I shout now I am me
I am still talking to the mirror
But now I discover... the woman looking at me ....
IS ME .....
