Do You
How do you see me?
Do you see beyond my
Shortcomings and failures
My mistakes and falling-outs?

Do you like what you see?
Can you find grace in my uncoordinated moves
Or see the good intentions where I faltered short of the goal
Is it possible you noticed my smile that night?

I am so much more than the clothes I wear
This mask of teenagerhood defiles my soul
Could you see beyond my outstretched hands
Do you think you could find someone you could love?

Buried beneath my skin and clay-fired bone
You'll find the person I thought I'd become
Do you see her?
Do you want to?
