An Ordinary Girl

I look in the mirror,
My reflection I see,
The hue of sadness and just a hint of me,
I want to break the glass and reach out to see,
Shatter the image,
To live and to breathe

I look in the mirror,
The intensity of me,
The burden of my emotions, my hopes and my dreams,
I see a girl not afraid to seek,
An ordinary girl,
With extraordinary dreams

I look in the mirror,
I love to see me,
Ready to pick up after she may trip,
I see a girl about to fly,
Chase her ambitions,
Run wild and free

An ordinary girl,
With extraordinary dreams
