Your True Reflection
If you look in the mirror,
What do you see?
“I see a friend who could never be anything more
I see a friend who is a star shining bright
Across the ocean in the midnight sky.
I see one who is always there,
Not liking to say goodbye.
One who is braver than a lion itself,
Purer than the pure white dove.
You ask me
“What kind of friend am I?”
I answer you with this;
“You are more than a friend to me-
You are like the wind
Blowing back and forth
You shine the sun,
And sparkle like the stars.
You are the softness of the clouds,
The whisper of a breeze”
You ask me
“Am I worth all this? You deserve better”
I reassure you that you are worth all this.
I want you in my life,
No-one could disagree,
That we are like the moon and the stars,
Or salt and pepper
Like fish and chips.
We stick together like glue – you and me
And you still ask yourself
“Am I worth it?”
I answer with a familiar reply..
I say..
“I couldn’t live my life without you,
Someone who is their selves.
Someone who doesn't make me feel like anyone but me.
So don’t change, don’t go away
Just be you and I will and do love you for that.
