I see the look glass

So shiny and new

I see all I’ve gone through

The heartache and pain

The stress and strain

The sleepless nights

The endless fights

The will to survive

And the best way to thrive

I see the looking glass

I feel no guilt

I see what God built

He’s been present each day

Showing me the way

I see the fire

I feel the desire

Right or wrong

Faith has kept me strong

I see the looking glass

Nothing ever looked so pure

God has made me secure

I see naysayers

But I say my prayers

I see the lessons

I hear the confessions

And I carry the past

While it last

As I stare at the looking glass
