I see you
No, I see the you you don’t let them see
I see you
The boy inside
The doubts
Your wall is so strong
Yet I found a way to crawl inside
To see you from the inside
To see the world from the other side
I see you
No, I see the you you hide from them
I see you
The frightened child
Tormented by terrors at night
I peered into your eyes
Behind the curtains
And you became human to me
Knocked down to a higher pedastal
Ripped off the knight’s armour
To find the angel’s wings
I see you
No, I see the you you deny you are
Vulnerable
Weeping
Naked and shaking
Soft and tender
Exposed
Open
Craving
Reaching for me
