Letters To My Wife | Use Me As Your Mirror…

Use Me As Your Mirror…

Use me as your mirror, when the light isn't so great
I want to reflect the beauty that I see for your sake
he is there telling you that you are not enough
That you are not able that you are not tough
You, my dear, are a beautiful in every way
I see how much you've grown each and every day

As a mother you operate with precision and grace
I hear, "I love Mommy" and see a smiling face
When they talk with me when you are out
Don't let him try to fill you head with doubt
Let me be the mirror that drowns him out

As a wife there is none that can compare to you
My life would not be the same without you
I was lost and you helped me find my way
You never judged harshly, you just always had your say
I am grateful for your patience as I began to grow up
Thank you for seeing through all my stuff
He wants to tell you that you are not enough
That I want something that you are not capable of
You, my love, are all that I have hoped and prayed for
This life, with its ups and downs, I need more and more

Use me as your mirror because there is more that I see
I let God show me who you are, and that is more than enough for me.

-God's Man
