I look at This Image
And smile then frown
Glance from an angle
And then look down
Blink once blink twice
Looking deeper into the eyes
I come to realize
My words are a reflection of me
My thoughts, my insight
What I am made to be
A vision comes to mind
And I sigh
A pain strikes me
Then I cry
How others portray me
I am blind
How I see me
Is a state of mind
I look in the mirror
What do I see
A woman of pain
A reflection of me
A woman of agony
A woman with tears
A woman with storms
A woman with fears
A woman who will overcome
These things
With prayer and healing
And the truth it brings
My Heavenly Father
Please give me the strength
To look beyond my perspective
In length
Guide me through, for I am weak
A healing of acceptance is what I seek.
Amen
