Knowing the other self that lies beyond the looking glass.

The Girl Beyond The Glass
I always felt when I looked into the mirror
There was someone looking back from there
Somewhere beyond where I could see
Awaited the one who was the real me
And as I'd look into her eyes
I'd see the soul past the disguise
But still I tried to live a lie
And keep her locked away inside
There within the mirror she waited
Softly calling out to me
With a desire that never faded
She longed to be free
Now so many years have passed
And still she’s there beyond the glass
But at last she's breaking through the fear and doubt
And the girl inside the mirror is coming out
