[bodytext] => Stare at the mirror
Look into your face Watch before your eyes As the image starts to change What the mirror unveils Something you’d rather hide Reflection reveals What you are inside A face full of rage Or leering lustful eyes Who is the person Deep within your mind? Contorted with pride Cringing from hidden pain Will your visage alter? Or will it remain unchanged? Twisted with hatred Careworn over years The divulgence of his true self Every man’s greatest fear Look within the glass Into your inner face What will the mirror show?
