Would You

If you knew me for just me The being deep inside Timid and detached The emotional being inside me, Would you? If you knew me for just me The being deep inside Insensitive and reticent The unwitting being inside me Would you? If you knew me for just me The being deep inside me Impassive and plain The opposite of the outward me Would you still accept me? Would you?
