Reflections

Look at me

You may think you see

who I really am

But you'll never

know me

Every day

It's as if I play

a part

Now I see

If I wear a mask

I can fool the world

But I cannot fool

my heart

Who is that girl I see

Staring straight

back at me

When will my

reflection show

Who I am inside

I am now

In a world where

I have to hide my heart

And what I believe in

But somehow

I will show the world

What's inside my heart

And be loved for

who I am

Who is that girl I see

Staring straight

back at me

why is my reflection

someone I don't know

Must I pretend

that I'm

someone else

for all time

When will my

reflection show

who I am inside

There's a heart

that must be free

to fly

That burns

with a need to know

the reason why

Why must we all conceal

What we think

How we feel

Must there be

a secret me

I'm forced to hide

I won't pretend

that I'm

Someone else

for all time

When will my

reflection show

Who I am inside

When will my

reflection show

Who I am inside
