MY REFLECTIONS.... by E.O.P.

My Reflections….

Yeah, I took a look in the mirror this morning

I see that same chick I saw yesterday

And the day be fore that

And the day before that

A beautiful reflection of me

Yeah, That 5 star chick

That one who knows she’s a queen

Diva down from head to toe

All dressed up in designer clothes

Gucci, Fedia, Prada, Lou vaton

Hell, whom can touch me

When im looking this damn good

As my reflection in the mirror burns

Not needing or wanting anyone to crowd her space

She knows she is that chick every man needs on his hip

That ride or die chick

Down with the get down

No matter for far down she has to go

Hmmmmmmmm as I began to giggle

Laughing at myself beyond disbelief

As my true reflection begins to shine through

Trying to understand if I am so great

Why am I sitting here alone?

Jonahing for that love jones

Looking for my mister right

Hell, I’ll take Mr. Right now if he is available

Naa, I’m not that hard up

As my reflection stares at me from across the room.

You never truly know yourself

Until you start exploring yourself

As I stare at my reflection

I find myself reminiscing on a lot of things

One things for sure

Your reflection will not hide the real truth

No matter how hard you try to deny it

The reflection will burn through

Like that time I worked at the strip club

While turning tricks on the side

Hell I thought I was doing the damn thing

Until I found out I was being stalked

At first it thought getting this money would be easy

But my reflection of scars and burses tell me something different

My self esteem was at an all time low

Not caring about myself

Not giving a [expletive] how I dressed

Damn your reflection is a true [expletive]

Something you just cant deny

No matter how hard you try

Like the day I meet you

My reflection smiled for days

I could stand in the mirror

And listen to my reflection sing to me for hours

Listening to me saying

My first name with your last name

As though we were already married

Yes, girl he made your reflection come alive

As the mirror reflects our passion

As we make love for hours

Jumping in and out of the shower

On top of the dress, to the recliner

Oh damn you got me doing a headstand

Wow you will be amazed

At what you will see in your reflection

As you scroll through your vivid imagination

Some may be bitter sweet

Some dark and cruel

But the reflection in your eyes

 Will never lye to you

My reflection is da realest [expletive] I know

Deep and complexed

Always keeping it real

Never lying to me to my face

My reflection tells it just like it is

And don’t give a damn how I feel

My reflection does not judge me

Simply acknowledges the fact that im real

I make foolish mistakes

A lot of bad choices

Traveled to many dead in roads

But my reflection has never talked about me

Never slandered my name

Never slept with my man

Because my reflection knows he is great in bed

My reflection burns deep in the mirror

Shines through my eyes

Like an hourglass half full

Can you see your reflection?

Can you every tell me your reflection don’t keep it real with you?

I’ll trust my reflection before

I would ever trust in you…

Remember im da realest chick

Dat 5 star chick

Yes that on every man wanted to be with

My reflection told me so

But yet im still standing here alone

Looking at my reflection
