Say hello to the girl in the mirror,
The perfect,
Flawless,
Image.
The one with the
perfect smile,
perfect friends,
perfect grades.
You look up to her,
Try to be like her.
Mimic her smile,
And everything will be ok.
The friends will come,
Holding images like yourself.
Just don’t let them see behind the mirror,
Don’t give in to your desire for something real.
For they are,
After all,
Her friends, not yours...
The girl in the mirror.
Be perfect,
Try to succeed,
And don’t let anyone see you fail.
<i>Don’t be real.
Forget truth.
It can’t be trusted.</i>
Perfection,
Counterfeit,
Image.
<i>As long as it’s hidden
It’s ok,
Don’t let them see underneath your sleeve.
Don’t let them see inside your heart.</i>
It’s ok.
I’m ok.
Believe what you see.
The girl in the mirror.
Only an image.
