Pretty Face with a Tortured Soul

What do you see
when you look at me?

 

Do you only see
the pretty face,
the smiling facade?

 

Or can you see
beyond my appearance?

 

Do you realize
my soul is tortured
and my heart is fractured?

 

Will you judge me
based on my personality
or focus on the superficial?

 

Or will you accept
for who I am
flaws and all?
