Today I met a great new friend
Who knew me right away
It was funny how she understood
All I had to say
*
She listened to my problems
She listened to my dreams
We talked about love and life
She'd been there, too, it seems
*
I never once felt judged by her
She knew just how I felt
She seemed to just accept me
And all the problems I'd been dealt
*
She didn't interrupt me
Or need to have her say
She just listened very patiently
And didn't go away
*
I wanted her to understand
How much this meant to me
But as I went to hug her
Something startled me
*
I put my arms in front of me
And went to pull her nearer
And realized that my new best friend
Was nothing but a mirror
