She doesn't like staring at herself in the mirror ... Afraid of what she might see ... She doesn't feel like herself ... The ghosts from her eerie past ...continue to chase her ... She keeps drowning among her memories ... It's eating her up inside .... Everyday she wishes she could escape this torture ... She keeps running away .... Without getting anywhere ... Until one day she lifts up her face looks directly at her reflection ... Without blinking ... She faces noone else but herself ... She isn't a stranger ... She is just a young woman ... With a story of her own ... With sweet & sad memories .... She is not perfect & will never be ... So she breaths deeply ... And finally smiles at that girl she had been trying to avoid for too long ... Her own self .... The answer to her worries was & had always been right in front of her ... Loving herself first was the key to her happiness ...
I just have felt this way many times & i am learning about self love :)
