Deeper then you can see


When you look at me, what do you see?
Do you see a girl who is happy and free?
Or do you see someone who has been hurt
Someone who has had their heart thrown in the dirt

Do you look at my outsides, or do you look into my heart?
Can you see that there is more to me then what is shown at the start?
Or do you judge me from what my body looks like
Things i cant change though try i might

You take one look at me and you walk away
You dont realize that this is a game i dont want to play
I want you to like whats on the inside, the real me
But that is much deeper then you can see.


I was going to add more onto this poem, but I didn't really know where to go from there. I may add more later.

Hey...I really liked yer poem...it takes a lot of courage to write something like that.
You placed your thoughts very nicely too.  It seems like yer feeling pretty dejected lately...I've swam that wave in my days...luckily, now I work too much to really worry about it.  If you wanna

Actually lil angel, your poem is good as it is. You don't have to add more to it anymore.  I like it a lot.  Remember, people who only look at the outside is not worth being with. What always counts is what's in the inside.

Poem speaks fathoms as is. People are so ignorant to what we truly are, never looking beyond the surface. We have all been guilty of this. Hopefully your poem will inspire us all to look a little deeper now. You got my vote.

I agree with Thomas! We all are guilty of giving into the cynical wraths of judgement. Your words tell the story all too well. I don't think that you need to add any lines, it is just great the way it is. Keep your head up my friend! Love Always~*~Jessica~*~

This is a great poem, and so true. I can relate to this VERY well. If this person can't see past the outside, well, he's not good enough for you anyway.
