Today I met a great new friend
Who new me right away.
It was funny how she understood
All I had to say.
She listened to my problems,
She listened to my dreams.
We talked about love and life.
She's been there too it seems.
I never once felt judged by her,
She knew just how I felt
She seemed to just accept me
And all the problems I've been dealt.
She didn't interrupt me
Or need to have her say.
She just listened patiently
And don't go away.
I wanted her to understand
How much this meant to me
But as I went to hug her,
Something startled me.
I put my arms in front if me
And went to pull her nearer,
And then I realized my new best friend,
Was nothing but a mirror.
