adventures in reflective surfaces

Too Big for Stuff
I am not a little girl
but my parents still think I am
I clean myself sometimes with baby-wipes
and look myself in a small mirror
They try to make me think
that I am still their little girl
I think it is sweet
but I need to grow up
I am not a little girl
I am a woman
when I see myself in my small mirror
I don't see a little girl's face
but I see a grown up woman
Mirror never lie
it reflects everything honestly
I can see myself there
I can see my soul there
it is the window I should show my parents
that they need to allow me to grow up
and I am too big for my little mirror
but my parents still think I am
I clean myself sometimes with baby-wipes
and look myself in a small mirror
They try to make me think
that I am still their little girl
I think it is sweet
but I need to grow up
I am not a little girl
I am a woman
when I see myself in my small mirror
I don't see a little girl's face
but I see a grown up woman
Mirror never lie
it reflects everything honestly
I can see myself there
I can see my soul there
it is the window I should show my parents
that they need to allow me to grow up
and I am too big for my little mirror
