I'M More Than What You Thought

My gifts, you wanted me to conceal
Only to you were they to be revealed
You thought I was a flirt and nothing more
You were intrigued and couldn't ignore
My personality you could not handle
After the split, you then realized
My gifts were from above and not to be internalized











I'm more than what you thought
