Do you See Me?

by Stephanie Thompson

What do you see in me?

besides ink on my fingers

and paint on my nose?

What do you see in me

down deep inside

way back behind my eyes?

Do you see the dreams

dancing in my head

the hopes singing in my heart?

Do you see the plans

the aspirations

or the fears and cold dread?

Do you see

humanity in me

yet a spark reflecting divinity?

Do you see any of me

even just a little part?
