Description
Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Have I got it?
'Cause Mirror you've always told me who I am
I'm finding it's not easy to be perfect
So sorry you won't define me
Sorry you don't own me

Who are you to tell me
That I'm less than what I should be?
Who are you? Who are you?
I don't need to listen
To the list of things I should do
I won't try, I won't try

Mirror I am seeing a new reflection
I'm looking into the eyes of He who made me
And to Him I have beauty beyond compare
I know He defines me

You don't define me, you don't define me

Mirror by: Barlow Girl


I must have used the crappiest, most dried up pastels in the world on this piece.
I'm not sure the reflections are right, but oh well, I still like it

This image and text were very meaningful to me ...
I'm anorexic and I've a relationship of suffer dependency with the mirror.
Somehow, his work has brought me hope. Thanks and sorry for my bad english

Fallen-Ashes In reply to bitchblase [2010-05-20 15:27:33 +0000 UTC]

I'm so glad that my work was able to bring you hope!
When I was in high school I went through a brief period of anorexia, I thought I was fat and ugly. Those feelings returned after my ex-boyfriend broke up with me a few months ago. I felt inadequate and unlovable, but I know I'm not.
If there's one thing I've learned, it's that you shouldn't care about what other people, or your mirror, thinks of you. Focus on being exactly the way you are because God made you in His perfect image.
Thank you for the !
