In the mirror, I gaze, a face so true,
Through layers of time, the self I pursue.
In silent whispers, the heart speaks loud,
A journey within, unshaken by the crowd.

Through valleys of doubt and peaks of grace,
I find my path, my own sacred space.
With steps uncertain, yet spirit bold,
A story of self, in courage told.

The shadows of fear, I cast aside,
Embracing the light I hold inside.
Each moment a brushstroke, painting my way,
In colors of hope, come what may.

As seasons change, so too do I,
A dance with time beneath the sky.
In the quest for self, I find my song,
A melody of life, where I belong.
