You Can Tell Me
What do you want to tell me
That you feel you cannot tell?
Do you think I would run away
Laugh
Or reject you?
Do you think I would change my perception of you?
Do you know that a person is not made by what he does
But by what he is in his soul?
People change
Do things
Things that they may not be proud of
Making mistakes along the way
That is part of a learning process
Part of life
One should not judge a book by its cover
By the beauty from the outside
But by the heart shining through its protective layer
When we are vulnerable
It is easy to cover up and insulate
Shield and fortify
But wouldn’t you want to be free
And find out?
Never know what you’ll be missing
Sooo
Don’t or do
Wish you do
