Consider

A sensitive soul I am
A fragile heart I am
A growing mind I am.

Not many dared to come close
'Cause I'm used to building walls
"Stay away from me
For I know you're only captivated
By what you see
And what you think of me".

Indeed my inner world is like the deep ocean
Mysterious, even to myself
Don't claim that you can be patient
When you haven't even heard
A small slice of my daily thoughts
Don't claim that you can keep up
When most of me are cloaked
Hidden from your eyes.

I've been judged by many
When I shared some slices of my thoughts
So I've learned to stay silent
And keep conversations to a minimum
For a true listener
Is hard to come by.

So let me ask you a question
Are you sure you want to come close?
Consider the deep ocean
And that my true self isn't as your perception
Unpretty, unspecial
So do reconsider.
