In Your Eyes

In your eyes, do I look pretty?

Do I even appear cool to you?

Do I seem to be a good person?

Truth is, I don't know what I look like in your eyes.

Do you notice my flaws?

Do you see every single one of my imperfections?

Do you see my scars that are flecked across my arms?

Do these ever bother you at some point?

Do I seem sad or upset?

Do I seem happy in your eyes?

Do I seem like anybody else?

I wish I could be close enough to see the reflection of myself in your eyes.

I am still trying to find myself.

I honestly do not know who I am.

Perhaps, what do you see when you look at me?

Do you see me for me?

Or do I appear to be someone else in your eyes...?
