Beneath the surface
A different person
What shows outside
Does not mean
They are always cursing
Below the hard skin
Is something good
What you can't see
Does not mean
They are always rude
Above the stern looks
Is a kind being
What you don't know
Does not mean
They will never sing
Higher than what seems
Someone special
What you won't know
Is that they
Have struggled as well
They may not know it
But they are okay
But do tell them
That they are
It may make their day
