As I looked in the mirror

I saw what I didn’t like

I saw a monster

And I wished that I

Wasn’t me

I wished that I could change

Everything

So I wasn’t so different and strange

I wanted to be like the rest

I didn’t get it

I wasn’t asking to be the best

I just didn’t want to be this

That was the old me

Back in the high school days

But I learned that I just really

Needed to change the way

I saw myself

in the mirror
