Mirror

by Crystal Elizabeth - Capricorn

When I look in a mirror
  What do I see?
I was asked that before.
  Do you really want to know?
I see a girl,
  Not a woman.
Putting on her makeup
  Hoping that it will help.
I see a girl, 
  Not a woman.
Putting up her hair,
  So it is out of her face.
I see a girl,
  Not a woman.
With tears in her eyes,
  Because you have hurt me too many times.

    This is how I feel about myself.
