Look at me
What do you see?
Do you really see me?
No do you really see me?
Look at me
What do you see?
Do you see who I am?
or what you see
is the outside of me.
Look at me
Do you see this shell?
This covering shell?
This shell that stops you from seeing me
Is that all you see?
Look at me.
See who you are looking at
Now do you see me?
Do you really see me?
Look closer and deeper
Really look at me.
See what is inside of me
Because that's what you should see
See me for me.
