Mirror mirror on the wall
hanging pretty down the hall.
On my face are lines that show
of a life that only I could know.
A wrinkle here a wrinkle there
age spots appearing from who knows where.
Eyes of blue stare back at me
for in my soul only they can see.
Encompassing a compassionate heart
kind and gentle I play the part.
I'm mother, daughter, sister and friend.
I'm a wife to my husband until the end.
I'm a God fearing person, thankful to him
for dying on the cross to erase our sin.
I'm a lover and fighter, the latter the least.
And I have a great love for all of God's beasts.
I live my life as if each day is the last,
and the mistakes that I've made I leave in the past.
I believe in our freedom, the American way
and daily I think of the soldiers and pray.
I'm proud of the me, who's reflection I see
I'm just Kelly, for now thats enough for me.
