You Can'T See Me

What one sees on the outside does not reflect what's within all the natural eye can see is the color of my skin You may not like my eyes and think my nose and lips are big you may even think my hair is nappy and I should consider wearing a wig But what you see on the outside does not reflect what lies within it's not your judgement that hurts me but it's your ignorance that offends Ignorant to the fact that I am not what you see the very essence of who I am lives deep inside of me
