They don’t know about your past,
or care about your present state
They never take the time to try to discover the real you
Not concerned about your mind,
but about your size and your shape
Only interested in the absence
or the presence of beauty in your face
They don’t take very much time to search and explore
To find the things that are hidden far beneath
They are unaware all the while that there is so much more
They don’t realize that true beauty is more than skin deep
There is a treasure that is buried deep inside of you
One that can only be found by a true friend
Someone with open ears, and with comforting words
Someone with open arms, and with helping hands
Someone who will take the time to get to know the real you
Someone who really cares about you very much
Someone who doesn’t mind the outer shell
that covers the pure heart inside
Someone like me, who realizes that there is
a Diamond in the Rough
