me

I've seen the way you look at me
Searching with your cautious eyes
For clues, for signs, for some indication
That will confirm what you feel inside
I know you think I've changed
Some way, some how
And you're right, I have
But no matter where you look
You'll never see the change on me
Because you see
The change is all inside
Covered by layers of skin
And the smile you've always known
Wrapped up in a bottle
That will one day overflow
And spill the contents of my soul
All over the black and white tile floor
So if I seem different to you
It's simply because I am
And though you won't be able
To pinpoint the change
I think you need to know it's there
Because I know
And I like it
Whether it's right or wrong
It's me
