Buried Deep Inside

Every time I see you, there’s a scowl on your face
Every time you look at me, I stare off into space
There must be a heart beneath that bitter, outer core
But you appear so scary; you leave people running for the door!
You have a love of reading, and you seem to keep to yourself
There must be a heart buried deep inside you, but I’m too scared to help
You seem to be always grumpy, but I see the glint in your eye
There must be some sort of feeling, way down deep inside
I see the shine in your eyes when you talk about your books
You probably think that I don’t care, that I didn’t bother to look
Why don’t you show the world your true colours, let them out
Show the world what it is you really care about!
I know there must be something underneath that bitter, outer core
I’ll keep searching for it, I’ll continue to explore.

I actually wrote this poem about my english teacher!
lol - he's one of the grumpiest men you'll ever meet!
now that i'm a senior, we get along pretty well and he's not that grumpy....most of the time.
