This poem is absolutely awesome! I really like your use of "image" instead of "mirror" - it makes it more personal, in my opinion, to have a conversation with your quasi alter ego than an object. Love the subject as well - we all could really use someone, and be that somebody our reflection, to cheer us up with a pep talk exactly like this when we think too lowly of ourselves. However much there may be too criticize, there's bound to be so much more to praise. The hardest part is seeing and acknowledging the good in you, so it would be nice to have somebody kind point them out.
Again, a wonderful poem you have here!

Thank you very much ^_^ And I do agree. I got to thinking one day after reading so many "down on you.. read moreThank you very much ^_^ And I do agree. I got to thinking one day after reading so many "down on yourself poetry" that if people looked into their mirror, their image would probably want to smack some self confidence into them. Besides, while we're standing their insulting ourselves, we're insulting our sister/brother images in the mirror too. That's not very nice, now is it? ^_~

That's a good point, lol.
It's an excellent read, especially the way you twist the ending, truly enjoyed and a bit more optimistic than most I've seen on this subject, Thanks for writing, and the read request ^.
