Never trust the mirror, for it only shows what's skin deep. It doesn't show how your eyes sparkle when you laugh or how your laugh makes you younger in so many ways. It does't show the moisture your lips glisten with from the anxious biting nor does it show the creasing of your brows in annoyance. It doesn't show the flutter of your lashes as you fall asleep or the way your hair frames your face as you light up the world with a simple smile. It doesn't show the posture of you body as you walk or the look in your eyes as you stare at your significant other. It doesn't show you loving or your fleeting glances of pure admiration or even your look of raw anger. It doesn't define you.

Never Trust the Mirror
Never trust the mirror, for it only shows what's skin deep. It doesn't show how your eyes sparkle when you laugh or how your laugh makes you younger in so many ways. It does't show the moisture your lips glisten with from the anxious biting nor does it show the creasing of your brows in annoyance. It doesn't show the flutter of your lashes as you fall asleep or the way your hair frames your face as you light up the world with a simple smile. It doesn't show the posture of you body as you walk or the look in your eyes as you stare at your significant other. It doesn't show you loving or your fleeting glances of pure admiration or even your look of raw anger. It doesn't define you.
For all the insecure girls and boys. Please read.
