I stand in front of the other me
She stares back.
I judge her, all of her imperfections are mine
And I cry,
Because I wish I was her.
She does not care about their words,
That cut like diamonds from beautiful mouths.
Because they are perfect, unlike her
But she doesn’t care.
She doesn’t mind.
Because she,
Is just a reflection.
