Hard as nails Soft as a teddy bear Two sides that two different people see I'm hard and mean to everyone Rough rude and rigid Never a sweet word uttered But if you know me Then you'll know that it's just my exterior I rust like any other nail Melt me with words and I'll pool at your feet Soft and gooey I'm gone in a whirl of liquid emotion I'm not truly rough and rigid I'm not stiff and severe I'm a sarcastic pool of mush that can't figure out her feelings You'd know that if you truly knew me But who actually does?
