She is Me

They say She's weird
They say She's nerdy 
they're probably right
it's probably true 
 
They say She's to shy
That she's to forgetful 
they're right again
This is also true
 
The things they don't know 
Are the things they don't see
There is more to her than meets the eye 
They really don't know her, just haven't taken the time
 
The things they say, may be true 
The things they say, may be right 
But there is more to  her than they can see
If only they could see what I see
 
I see a girl, breaking out of her shell 
I see a girl, comfortable in her skin
So what if she's weird or nerdy
So what if she's shy or forgetful
 
These traits are only part of her character
A step back will show the full picture 
A beautiful girl inside and out
She will show them, they will see
 
She's a loving mother, sister, daughter, and wife
She's honest even when it's hard to be 
She's unique and that's ok
She's flawless, just listing facts.
 
She is also smart and optimistic
She knows that someday they will see
She will show them, another side 
Who is this girl? she is me
