What you can't see

What you can't see
its glaring, its true
and so easy for others to see
how come it's so hard for you

I'm a good person
strong to a fault
but with a good heart
set on unconditional love

I could make you a wonderful wife, friend, and equal
you can't see all my strength, value, and uniqueness
instead you focus on all my bad qualities
you want to put me down, especially when you're feeling bad

it's driving me insane slowly
i am so tired some mornings that it requires effort to remember my name
and an extra push to get out of bed in the morning to face a world
where you are too cruel sometimes

there are so many things you can't see
so many others before you
have loaded me with praise and appreciation
is my supreme attraction due to the fact that i have to work my ass off to satisfy you

and still you remain unsatisfied
unhappy with my current performance
questioning what you feel for me
if you could only see

there are so many things that you can't see
i am deeply loyal, i will never abandon you
but will you abandon me
will you get tired of me

when we first met you seemed so struck by me
what happened to that
was that before you refused to look at my good qualities
and all the other things you couldn't see

i just hope one day when we're back in each others arms
that you will never question
all my value
and will see all that right now you can't see
