Untitled If I showed you who I was, would you cringe? Would you laugh in my darkness? Would I regret myself? If I showed you my scars, would you stare? Would they glow with shame? Or fade into who I am, that being okay? If I showed you my eyes, would you see my soul? Would you find nothing there, like he did? Or would you see the flame I saw in you? If I let my tears flow, would you know why? Would you tell me that I didn’t make sense? Or would you know all to well what each salty tear represents? If I showed you myself, and all that I am, Would I finally understand it myself? Would you make me feel whole? If I showed you who I was, If I showed you who I am, Would you show me the same of you?
