I stare at the mirror
Look at what I see
Searching for the beauty
Somewhere inside me
I search and look for why you say I am
From what I see and what you say
I just don’t understand
I cannot stand what I see
Its me
Still I cannot seem to love myself
As others do
I try and try
Its impossible I say
Would it be better if I just fade away?
