you see me
even when I don't feel whole
you see my every flaw
when I cannot see myself
you see me
even when I've closed the door
when all the light
is shaded by the dark
and when, even in my best mood
the clouds remain
soaking me in misery
to the point I am drowning
suffocating lungs filled with soot
I will try my best to stand tall
a woman isn't always easy to see
but you see me
with your eyes
you see the sparkles
of light deep within my soul
you see me at my best
you see me, when I reach my goals
a woman isn't always easy to see
but you see me
you really do
and
that's when...
Motown meets the Blues.

Loved this one Teddy and the last line is what pulled it all together. Whether lovers, dancers, or jamming on instruments it is that understanding that brings it all together and makes music.
So very kind dear sorrenbarret 🌹 thank you.
Love it
Thank you dear Tony36 🌹
You're welcome
Beautiful. You bring this scene to life. Billie was tremendous. Great work, sweet Teddy.
Ah the music scene how rich would it be, priceless I reckon, thank you dear Thomas, I hope you are ok sweet friend. 🌹
I think, maybe, Billie could have used a lot more understanding. If only someone had looked into her eyes and saw what was there.
Music is the great unifier of man. If we communicated by music and not language, we'd all be a lot better off. Oh well, I'm rambling. Your poem is responsible. It had me thinking, "What if?" Thoroughly enjoyed your poem. "A woman isn't always easy to see" is a brilliant line. - Phil A.
So very kind and actually you just saw me with this incredibly lovely review. Thank you🌹
