Being Me

Will you look for me?

As I move slowly through the storm

Will you wait for me?

As the rain comes

Will you be there?

With outstretched arms

Ready to enclose me tightly

Stifling my shivers

Keeping me nestled and warm

Will you love me?

With my tear-stained face

Laugh lines from smiles long faded away

Forehead plastered with wrinkles of worry

Happiness so out of place

Or will you fault me for being me?
