The Mirror Lies
She doesnt feel pretty she hasnt for a while,
in the mirror when she looks she cant make herself smile.
The time of her beauty has passed her by,
her reflection proves it she starts to cry.
The mirror is no longer her friend,
but when its not near her she can still pretend.
The love of her life enters and says,
the more lovely you get with each day that passes,
if you really cant see this perhaps you need glasses.
You’re my life my love and i’ll tell you whats true,
i see nothing but perfection when i look at you.
She sees herself in his eyes,
and thats when she knows the mirror lies
The real beauty is in the love displayed. The mirror definitely lies.

If only Husband would tell me things like this. He has 2 responses when I ask how I look, either: “Fine” or
“Aren’t you going to do something about your hair, shirt, nails etc?”

That was really lovely. Nicely done.
I think I was about 44 before I finally got a good driver’s license picture. All the prior ones looked like scary mug shots. It was kind of funny because I saw that picture and thought, dang, I’m actually starting to look pretty good! In my 30’s the mirror lied, but it doesn’t anymore.
