See me now for what I am
Proud, strong, beautiful
Reach past the discomfort of self
The deformity of perception.
See me now for what I am
Free, giving, needing
Seeking a gentle smile, a warm word.
See me now for what I am
I am the beauty who’s mind is dismissed
because of her looks
The shy one who peeks from behind
the curtain of uncertainty
I am the ugly duckling who is dismissed
because I am hard to look upon
The elder who is ignored because
my body is frail
I am the teenager who is dismissed because
my knowledge is seen as yet so new.
See me now for what I am
Here, where my heart beats, my soul flies
And my dreams dare to fill me with hope.
See me now for what I truly am
For I am you…and you
And you

Awesome Poem yet again!
As a side note: I love the picture but could do without the fairie (personal preference you of course are the Artist), the pic sort of makes me think of seeing a moon from the surface of another planet because of the colors and the sharp look. Very nice.
When you get a chance, go check out my - My Blogs of Note page.
Hope you like. If you make a special picture for your site I will put it to the left of your title (thats why I have left those spaces).
Oh sweetie, you're probably going to hate visiting here. I do a lot of fantasy art. There is just too much of the real world to contend with without putting it into my images.Off to check your blogs of note.....
You misunderstood. I was wanting you to make a picture just for your Link. An original just for you/your site. I would put it beside your Link. No others.
With what I have seen unless you go total outer somewhere I think I will enjoy coming here. Could never hate this work and poetry.
It is good.
I remember the poem...still like it a great deal. The pic is new to my mind (in association to this poem...lol). To me the fairy gives a greater sence of fantasy or other worldly presence. But you know how I am about fantasy...:)
