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.
