Mirror Talks

I wake up with a war inside my mind

The mirror used to whisper lies each time

But now I stare a little longer, stand a little taller

I say the words I used to hide

"You are enough, you are the fire

You've walked through storms, and come out brighter"

My own voice shaking, still I try

The truth is in my eyes

Mirror talks, I talk back

Every scar, every crack

Is proof I made it through the black

And I'm not looking back

I speak love into my soul

Say it loud till I know

I'm the hero of my story—watch me glow

These mirror talks saved me whole

She used to cry and wipe the tears in shame

Now she smiles and calls herself by name

Says, "Girl, you're gold, don't you forget it"

The world tried to dim it, but I won't let it

The silence once felt like a curse

But now I fill it with my own verse

Rewriting how I see my worth

Healing through each word

Mirror talks, I talk back

Every scar, every crack

Is proof I made it through the black

And I'm not looking back

I speak love into my soul

Say it loud till I know

I'm the hero of my story—watch me glow

These mirror talks saved me whole

There's power in the way I say my name

Like I've finally broken out the cage

I don't need the world to say I'm strong

I've known it all along

Reflections turning into flame

Burning off the guilt and pain

This is how I rise again

Mirror talks, I talk back

Every scar, every crack

Is proof I made it through the black

And I'm not looking back

I speak love into my soul

Say it loud till I know

I'm the hero of my story—watch me glow

These mirror talks saved me whole

Yes, these mirror talks made me whole
