You

I
Come dressed in pessimism
With so many questions 
Untrusting, unbelieving 
Dragging some past pains 
Rekindling the same low self esteem, that always brings me down 
Scared, unsure,trapped,
maybe I already stopped caring 

You
So optimistic 
With so much energy, freedom
Loving with bold hands 
Caring with bold hugs
Believing, never losing sight of the light
Fun spirit, fun loving
So strong, principled, philosophical

I look in the mirror 
My own reflection, with my defections 
I think of you
My own hero, leading me to perfection
