You see what I allow you to see .
You know only what I want you to know .
I tend to play dress up with my exterior .
You’ll never guess what goes on within .
That’s my cross to bare interiorly .
You think you know me !?
You think you get me !?
You think you can relate !?
You see what I allow you to see .
You know only what I want you to know .
I tend to play dress up with my exterior .
You’ll never guess what goes on within .
That’s my pill to swallow .
What you don’t know makes you anticipate.
What you don’t get make you perpetrate .
When you can’t relate that makes you create hate .
I’ll let you believe what you want, that’s the way you really see me.
See me for who I am not for what I have
See me there’s more than what meets the eye
See me skin deep not my surface attire
See me I’m not mute I have a lot to say
See me in the lies when I say I’m okay
See me beyond the filters and the posts I make
See me in the silence, in the nights I break
See me in the tears that never hit the ground
See me when I’m lost but never make a sound
See me in the chaos, not just in the calm
See me in the pain I cover with a charm
See me when I’m healing, not just when I’m whole
See the battle scars that shaped my soul
See me when I laugh — it’s not always joy
See the little girl, not the image I deploy
See me when I’m strong and when I fall apart
See me not just body, but soul and heart
See me like a story still being written
With pages torn, but none are hidden
See me like art — not perfect, but real
See me, don’t look — really feel
