Reflection of my Soul


Looking in the mirror, while facing my reflection,
looking in my eyes ejecting my expression,
seeing my entire soul in the inner of my eyes,
that shows all the sadness, from my heart that still cries.

I know I must be strong, as a mother and as a wife,
guide my loved ones, with all my love in their life,
but when they repay my love with sorrow and pain,
and hurt my heart, it makes me feel so insane.

There's no one around, where I can be just myself,
I try to be strong, cover my feelings under a shelf,
Oh please help me Lord, cause I'm so involved in my smart,
Buried in sorrow overwhelming my heart.

Looking in the mirror, looking myself in the eyes,
trying to hide my feelings, but my eyes still can't lie,
I must try to find my strength, my smile and my faith,
will be there for my loved ones, cause life doesn't wait.

Charisma thanks for sharing your deepest thoughts and cares...and may things get better for you and yours. I know how important family is and how much it means to a mother....things may go wrong but with love all things can be healed...I also know the amazing strength of a mother's love ...one of the strongest loves there is...so when you look in that mirror you're looking at someone who cares deeply for the ones she loves and has all the love in the world to back her up. there is always a magical strength to love and it can get you through the toughest of times.........take care....ethome....

I think the times we stop to look into our heart and soul are not always the happiest times but I believe they are necessary and happiness will have its time also...James
