And if you can&rsquo;t see anything beautiful about yourself<br /> Get a better mirror<br /> Look a little closer<br /> Stare a little longer<br /> Because there&rsquo;s something inside you<br /> That made you keep trying<br /> Despite everyone who told you to quit<br /> You built a cast around your broken heart<br /> And signed it yourself<br /> You signed it<br /> &ldquo;They were wrong&rdquo; <br /> - Shane Koyczan
