• My exterior is hard
    Tough and not easily broken
    With a border outlining
    Who they believe I am
    Inside the pages
    Of my life
    I'm a different book then you think
    I'm not as tough as you think

    I'm delicate as a flower
    And easily torn
    But I am still mighty
    Though the words are worn
    I'm like a horror book
    That can scare you with things
    Or fascinate you
    Like a Sci-Fi book
    I'm full of mystery too
    Like Nancy Drew
    But perhaps I'm sad
    And romantic inside?
    Or maybe one who just loves to laugh
    To see others smile too
    Or just wanting to twist the end a little
    But you can't choose

    I am who I am
    Something you cannot change
    Like me or not
    You can't make an understatement about me
    For you cannot judge a book by its cover.
