FAT

When I look in the mirror
I see what you see 
A fat middle-aged woman 
Staring at me

If you could only look past
The roll around my waist
The double chin hanging there
A round swollen face

You would see 
That there's so much more to me
Than a reflection in the mirror
To the one that is She

For underneath every inch of fat
There is a beautiful woman and that is that
