My desperate attempt to find someone
has been leaving me afraid.
Drowning in a sea of people
knowing they'll never see my true face.

Your shallow judgement has left me trying
to find something good within my core,
but I know your assessments and my imaginings
will only lead to tearing me apart.

The thing is, sir,  I loathe you.
You and your peers alike.
Yet I know in the end I'm stronger.
Be patient, give it time.

The looks will surely fade,
and you'll be left with an ugly soul.
By that time I'll be shining brightly,
and you'll wish you'd have seen before.
