A Glass Beauty

This piece is special to me. I wanted to ask myself why is the mirror feel like a real person. A way to mold me into not liking what I see. Woman especially have to learn to love the flaws and imperfections. Take away the mirror for once in our lives. See what image matters in life. None in fact is greater then looking within ourselves. There is one thing other than looking wanting to be perfect. Take the perfect selfie. We are all people with a heartbeat. 

A Glass Beauty

a mirror stands before me

my reflection like no other
It says do you like yourself
take away the voice within

reshape the past doubt
mold your mind allow
clay forms a perfect person
push past the ideal

see each different layer
outer beauty may fade
frizz wrinkles,spots and more
learn to love each flaw

uncover a person inside
with spoken word as a tool
hold magic in our hands
beating louder than ever

a new picture awaits
my image is whole
we say I like myself
but underneath that selfie
     a heartbeat
