True Bliss and Happiness

Beyond my reflection

I look in the mirror closely.

My hair is curly, my eyes are the color

of milk chocolate, my skin is olive

in complection.

I always thought that I was ugly --

Hidious, not attractive, just horrid.

I always thought bad about myself,

always saying how ugly I am

and how no one will love me.

But now that I look closely,

beyond the relfection of the mirror,

I see something. A slight sliver

glowing in the distance. What is it?

Could it be...beauty? My face is

glowing, and I start to feel what

I had never felt before: Beautiful.
