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.
This is exceptional, I love the twist on the classic phraze, and the whole thing is amazing! Beautiful formatting and haunting words, truth and emotion is spoken in them all. Awesome writing!
...... that was absolutely stunning! 100/100 and this is going in my favorites! The beginning has a little atitude which gets me locked in right from the start. Then you follow that up with great description and a powerful message that leaves me, the reader, 100% satisfied! Great job!

Talk about making a girl bllush! ^_^ I'm so happy you liked it that much. Thank you!
You conversed with your lovely image as the whole world listened and enjoyed.
Looking into the mirror and loving the self is a universal thing.
I have noticed many women do this.
But only you involved us to see and listen how you did this.
Specially loved your verses:
"I see you smiling
crystal clear
but is that really
the me I see?
I look into a foggy glass
my curiosity now aroused
This woman has such a plain face"
Fabulous write.
Your photo taken one year ago is awesome.

I feel very happy to learn that I could make your heart smile.
I agree, this is one of the best writes that I've read by you. I really like the start of it, as you start with the famous "Mirror Mirror," but you changed up by saying "Let me rephrase that." I really feel strong connection withthis, and I think everybody looks at their reflections like "Why do you do that" or "is this really I look like?" Awesome job, Emily :)
