she, me, and her

i was there for her
she's filled me up
and she's let me down
but i stand by her
taking whatever she throws at me
no obstacle is too big

i've let others misuse her
she's hurt me

i've gone deaf to her
she's healed me
she's abandoned me
but i love her more than words can say
she's pushed me to the edge
she's encouraged me

i've forgotten her
she always remembers me
she's lied to me
but i've never turned my back on her
she's believed in me
and stood in my corner
when everyone else left me stranded

i've placed others before her
she's cried with me
and has broken my heart

no matter how far i may go
she always welcomes me back home
she always knows what i should do

i've cursed her
and wished that she would go away
she's me best friend
and my worst critic

Some days she's all i've got in the world
i've needed her
i try to hide from her
but she always waits for me in the mirror...
