You see my as I am
Not who everyone else see's me
Not as the walls I put up to protect myself
But as the girl behind them
I don't know why
But you see me as myself
Is it because I have know you forever
Or is it just that when I am with you my walls come down
I don't know why
But I am so happy you can see as...
Myself

This is for the person who knows everything about my and not just what is in the walls I have put up. You've been the only person I have ever let them down for.
