Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

Mirror, mirror on the wall,

Ugly, is what you call.

But now it only matters what I’m inside,

And I stand in the mirror with pride.

It doesn’t matter if I’m short or tall,

Or my nose is big or small.

Blue eyes, brown eyes, black or green,

What makes me beautiful cannot be seen.

Your beauty standards are all false.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall,

You helped me recall.

My true reflection is in my heart.
