• She looks at herself in the mirror.
    And only sees
    A girl with braces
    Plastic framed glasses
    And the usual braids.

    Not happy with what she sees
    she turns in discomfort
    and shame.

    Then he cups his hands
    around his face
    and tells her
    "I love you"

    She looks up
    with tears in her eyes
    but stares into his
    and sees her reflection.

    And she sees
    A beautiful girl
    With soft hair
    And a magical smile
