Look at me

Look at me

Look into me

See me

See me for who I truly am

Stop a moment

Slow down

And gaze into my soul

Don’t just see who you want me to be

See beyond the person that you think you know

Between the fleeting glances and the swift peeks,

You failed to notice that I had died

And that I was resurrected

You’ve missed that I’ve become someone else

We’ve become strangers and you are yet to know it

I’m trapped behind your glazed over vision

I’ve ripped my mask off and I’m now burning through,

Bright, fierce and clear

But in your eyes my truth is obscured

Look

Look close

Don’t you see that the glint in my eyes is different?

That the shape of my smile has changed?

Stop making me feel invisible.

See. Notice. Comprehend.

Did you never really see me to begin with?

I’m shinning stronger

I’m finding my light

And soon the mere sight of me,

The ferocity of who I truly am reaching its peak,

Will blind you

So look at me

Look into me

See me

See me for who I truly am

Before it’s just too late
