What do you see?
When you you look at me?
Do you see my size?
And never look in my eyes?
Do you look at my soul
Before your judgment is whole?

Don't walk in my shoes,
They aren't meant for you.
Don't guess my destiny,
Without knowing me.
You already figured out,
What I'm all about.

Did you bother to ask,
Before attempting this task.
What I've been through,
Before I met you?
Of course, you did not,
That was never a thought.

Never will you know,
All of my show.
You chose when we met,
And your views were set.
Not ever a goal,
For you to see my soul.

Now as we part,
I'll still share my heart,
As cruel as you are,
I'm much kinder by far,
I was true from the first,
Never looked for your worst.

And as you now leave,
More lies will you weave,
My age, height or weight,
You'll silently berate,
While my heart's on my sleeve,
For the never us I'll grieve.
