A/N: More English poetry; free verse this time! :D This worked better in my head than it did on paper.
You can't see yourself
Unless you look in a mirror
Trying to turn yourself inside out'll just get
Your skin and conscience in a knot
I've tried, so I would know
.
Well, I think I finally found a mirror
To show my reflection flawlessly –
You were my mirror, did you know that?
I looked to you and finally found
I'm not so empty after all
.
How you see me is so much
Better than who I really am, so
I'll polish up my own mirror
For myself, and for you
So you can see how beautiful you really are –
.
Your liquid blue eyes, like deep clear seas
And laugh like silver bells –
I'm sure I sound ridiculous
With my use of similes right now
But get it memorized, 'cause it's true
.
I hope someday I'll help you half as much
As you've helped me to see
When you've lost it all, when you feel alone
And in the dark where the stars don't reach
You can still find mirrors to reflect the light that lies unseen
.
So we'll be each other's mirrors
And I'll reflect your glow for eternity.
