Do You See Me?

Do you see me?

Do you?

I don’t think you do…

I think you see what you want to see,

Not me,

The one here, inside, the real me

You say to be honest?

Why won’t you see

I am not the shadows that haunt us.

It is just me,

Open to all our possibilities.

I over do, I throw myself in,

It’s the way I am.

I can’t change that,

Despite the pain it may bring.

To love another,


To touch someone’s heart,

To be touched in return,

To be wanted, even for a moment……..

That risk I’ll happily take.


Do you see me?

The me inside?

The one who loves you

No matter the costs?

I hope you do,

Or we are both lost…..
