​
you don’t even see me
you hardly respond
when i whisper
hello
could be my soul mate
two kindred spirits
maybe we’re not
i guess we’ll never
know
my own mother you carried me in you
now you see nothing but what i wear
people asks you how am i doing
you smile and nod
don’t let it end there
put me underneath God’s sky and
know me
don’t just see me with your eyes
take away
this mask of flesh and bone and
see me
for my soul
alone.
