The Woman In The Glass

When you get what you want
as your struggle for self
And the world makes you
queen for a day.....

Just go to the mirror,
and look at yourself,
And see what that woman
has to say.

For it isn't your father,
or mother, or husband,
Who's judgment upon you pass;
The person whose verdict
counts most in your life,
Is the one staring back
from the glass.

She's the person to please,
never mind all the rest,
For she's with you
clear up to the end.

And you've passed your most
most difficult, and dangerous test,
If the woman in the glass
is your very best friend.

You may fool the whole world,
down the pathway of life,
And get pats on your
back as you pass.

But your final reward
will be heartache and tears,
If you've cheated
the woman in the glass.
