I see her in the mirror, even shards shattered
It’s the real girl and she’s not smiling there
She needs a sign of acceptance
That she’s not getting quick enough
First she must learn to love herself
Nurture the soul and kiss the heart
Then she will find she’s enough

Inside her mind screaming her lungs out
But poised on the outside showing no doubt
She has had to give up so much that it *****
But keeps on moving and testing her luck  
She doesn’t ask for much, just give her your touch
Help out by being available while she nurtures the soul
Kisses the heart and no longer comes apart

Within the shards she cries a lot
She can’t see what she’s actually got
Too busy smiling on the outside
She feels life is passing her by
The mirrored pieces tell no lies
The healing process isn’t too far
Nurture the soul and kiss the heart
