Knowing me, knowing you


Do you think I'd lie to you?
To the person I'm trying to be one with
Do you think I can't be trusted?
Me, who wants to be accepted through trust

If I lied to you
You would not see me as who I am
If I lied to you
You would know me as a better person

I despise pretense for you
I relinquish charade for you
I reveal myself to you
The poor me, the mundane me

Do I get gifts for being truthful?
Thank you for the roses
Do I get roses only for my poems?
I stand before you, unable to do much but love
Will you love me if I can only love you?
Will you love me for who I am?
Will I love you for who you are?
