Here we are again
Face to face
No masks
No disguises
Just me and you.
I don't recognize you,
That's nothing new.
It's in a different way though
No shame
No hate
No blame
Sure, I see some regret
But I don't think that will ever go away.
No the person I see now must have grown up a bit
She must be growing into her own skin
Because now when I look at you
I see Love
A bit of Confidence
A dash of Wisdom
And a heart full of Hope.
I can tell you still have some growing to do
But for the first time,
I can really say I am proud of the girl in the mirror.
