Can you see the tears falling down my cheeks?
Can you hear my words even though I don't speak?
Is it hard to see me for who I am?
Is it so hard for you to understand?
I'm not the prettiest woman in the world.
Sometimes I still act like a little girl.
Can you see not see how I love you so?
Can you not feel my pain when I see you go?
Is it too much to ask for you to see me?
And all of the possibilities that I can be.
I don't ask for much, just a little of you.
Just be there to hold me when I'm feeling blue.
For even though you can't see me for the woman I am.
I will shine bright as a star, the best that I can.

If they don't see you for who you are then they just aren't worth it...trade them in for a better model..

This piece ached..well done.

"Can you?" leaves the question open as to the clarity of the message the speaker is delivering to this audience of one.  And if the answer is "no", then perhaps it is the message that needs work.
"Will you?" would suggest that a clearer message has been offered and a clear choice is given to that audience.

Just something to think about . . .

From this soul to yours, Dear Angel With The Blue Eyes, you are beautiful beyond words.

Your poetry is an expression of who you truly are, and that makes you very beautiful indeed.
