Look at me
Really see me
For what am
Not who I’m suppose to be
And neither how I appear
Take off your shaded glasses
See me for what is really there
For what stands on ready haunches
Deep within my heart
See me and love me because
That is who I am
Because you know I will never change
And you are okay with that.
