Lydia Jerotich Poet Free verse

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?
