Reflection of Love
By Beverly Martin

Let me look at you closely
Deep into your eyes
Savour this moment
Before the time flies
As I look through the windows
That show me your soul
I remember in life
Love is the goal
So many lessons
In such little time
But you’re living and learning
You’re doing just fine
The fears that you feel, and battles you face
Over time with maturity you handle with grace
None of us perfect
Do not ever compare
How you’re doing in life
With another, don’t dare
The only great peace you will ever achieve
Is in finding that it’s in yourself you believe
Free yourself of comparison ever again
No looking at others with envy or pain
Put your hand to your chest
Feel your heart beat
Give thanks for your body
From your head to your feet
Give thanks for your heart
Let it show you the way
If you listen to it’s guidance
In love you will stay
Do not worry, do not fret
When change comes along
By getting out of your comfort
You will grow and get strong
Be kind and be brave
Let your light shine so bright
Let your soul be your master
One day it will take flight
Now look at me closely
Deep into my eyes
If you look with your heart
It will be no surprise
This face so familiar
Just look and you’ll see
As you stand in the mirror
I am you, You are me.
This beautiful journey,
As real as a dream
We will fly through this night
