Visions & Changes

In his eyes you could see hate, love, loneliness, hope, anger, and fright. You may not see that he is vulnerable, not brave, not courageous, and frightened, but I do. I know more than meets the eye. I know more about him than he knows himself.

He can hide all of his emotions, but I know they are there.

He can act and look like he is indestructible and that he is not afraid of anything, but I know the truth.

Don’t try to fake in front of me, because I can see more than what the eye can see.

Don’t become a hypocrite because I can see what’s in your heart.

Please, don’t change yourself. Don’t change who you are. Don’t become someone your not. Because I love you the way you are. I love the things you’ve become. So don’t change for them, don’t change for me, don’t change for anyone, don’t change for yourself, but change the world.
