Who you are
To the naked eye
Your looks can be deceiving
But it takes a listener
Someone who cares
Who wants to get to know you
To see you for who you are
Not for what they think you are
Or want you to be
Because when they know you
For who you are
Your looks from the outside don’t matter
For no matter what they say
Beauty comes from the inside
And the outside is just a little package
Waiting to be opened

It takes someone that knows the feeling
Of being ignored
Alone
To understand what you say
What you mean
Finding this person may be hard
It could be months
Or maybe years
But you will find that person
Who will listen to you
And see your true beauty

Fantasticall lovely poem. I really really like it. You are just so right. I am lucky: I found someone who cared enough to look within me and help me find the beauty I have within. I love the poem. PLEASE write another really soon-I am waiting for it!
