Why Can't You See?

by Chelsea   Sep 30, 2005


My words are stuck,
My words are silent,
They are buried way too deep.

Why can't you see?
It isn't really me,
smiling my way through life.

I need to get better,
But I don't know how.
I need to speak my mind,
But my goal is to make you proud.

Please don't get mad cuz of the things I've thought,
Don't be disappointed in the battles I've fought.

As I try to get better
people only see,
the outside cover,
not the real me.

*Please give me your honest opinion on what my rating should be. I'll be sure to return the favor. THX!!!*
