I Saw Perfect
*Today I looked in
And I saw a perfect face
A smile that lit up the room
When others looked your way
There was this calm about you
As you looked around the room
Knowing just what you want
And who is right for you
You looked my way and smiled
And I wondered who you saw
Not realizing it was me
That you searched for all along
I felt this calming peace within
As your eyes peirced my soul
I saw the inner beauty
That I knew was there to hold
That perfect person in the room
Was there for all to see
For that perfect face that I saw
Was in a mirror in front of me*

This poem is about finding yourself first. Seeing yourself differently and knowing that the way you see yourself, so will others. Believe that what you have to offer is what others want and others will want what you have to offer. (Wait I see a future poem in those last few words...lol)
