THE PERSON IN THE GLASS
When you get what you want in your struggle for self,
And the world makes us King for a day,
Just go to the mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that person has to say.
|
For it isn't your father, mother, husband, or wife,
Whose judgment upon you must pass:
The person whose verdict counts most in your life,
Is the one staring back from the glass.
|
He is the person to please, never mind the rest,
For he is with you right up to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous difficult test,
If the person in the glass is your friend.
|
You may fool the whole world down the pathway
Of years and get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears,
If you've cheated the person in the Glass.
