Just because you don't know me, doesn't mean that I don't know you.

I know that you're consumed by your sadness, but somehow manage to warm others with a smile.
I know your eyes are an intoxicating blue with a dark ring around the edges.
I know you love the dandelions and the wishes that they carry.
I know that you're convinced that you'll never find love or get married.
I know you are nothing but kind yet still convince yourself you aren't.
And I know those demons that you fight don't make you who you are.
I know you're insecure and long for a room with no windows or mirrors.
And I know you always wear that necklace because you love the stars and you think it makes life easier.

I know you, trust me,
And, darling, you are lovely.
