You Don'T Know Me

There's more to me than the color of my eyes
                            The way i smileor give a sigh
                           If you looked deeper within me
                            You may be amazed at what you see
                             I'm creative and imaginative
                             I care about the world in which we live
                             I believe in freedom and equal rights
                                   Also quiet summer nights
                             I believe in unity and family ties
                             And the sounds of newborn cry's
                             The earth's new awakening,in spring
                              I read nonfiction to learn new things
                              So look past the surface and you will see
                               The person that is really me
