People see two sides to you
The sweet side
Doting and loving
An adorable smile
Beautiful eyes
A heart that knows no end
To the smiles and laugh
Surprises and scares
That brings me to contentment
Then there's the immature side
Dirty comments pulled out of
Who-knows-where
That look of that-sounded-dirty
When I was speaking of math homework
I ask why
You say it's a swimmer's mind
I simply roll my eyes
But they don't see the in-between
The fragile side
Self-confidence lacking
Easily swayed with words
Of discouragement
Putting yourself down
At every simple mistake
I tell you to bring yourself up
I wonder if it's working
Whenever that side surfaces
My heart can't help but ache
If you can't believe in yourself
Who can
Even if I do
Can you become stronger
These words of encouragement
Are only a security blanket for you
Only I can see the in-between
Only you can change that
