If You Look At Me

If You Look At Me



If you look at me
On the outside
You will see
A girl who looks as happy as can be
A smile that is so bright
Some people say it could light up the night
Eyes as green as grass
That change color when she laughs
A young face and a joyful expression
Only her worries could make it lessen
Hair that shines like gold in the sun
It's so blonde people think she's "dumb"
Hands that are long and slightly slim
Fingernails curved, neatly trimmed
Arms long and stretched out wide
Ready to hold back the tide
She seems perfect doesn't she?
Look on the inside and then you'd see
A girl whose not as secure as she seems
She doesn't like the way she talks
She thinks she sounds like a guy
And then there's the way she walks
Might as well pass her by
She worries about the future
And how people treat her
One who has tons of thoughts
Someone who can't be bought
Someone who'd die for her friends
Even though it meant her end
There's a lot to this girl
If you only got to know her
You'd understand
There's a lot in demand
Some that she can't supply
No matter how hard she tried
So she struggles with herself
Her wants and desires
Trying to quench unknown fires
Yet always fails and is in the way
Of what she really wants to say
So she goes on living like nothing wrong
Smiling and singing happy songs
When sometimes all she wants to do is cry
But only allowing a little sigh
This you'd know if you took the time
To get to know her and read this rhyme
If you look at her....
