Mirroring Happy

Mirroring Happy
It's what you’re
doing to your body;
it’s what you’re
feeding your soul,
that’s making you feel
hopeless and full of woe

Make up your mind
to practice what
you preach,
reach deep inside
and let the inner soul
teach

Reflect on the knowing
that's always been there
push it to the surface
do it, if you dare

Remember the times
when you did
not back down,
make yourself smile
even when all you
want to do is frown

Mirror your steps to be
careful and true,
remember to love
everyone, especially you

It's from within
that you will grow
and this, yes this truth,
you already know…
