Who you are
I do not know you.
You
Who are standing before me
Unsure
Of what I might think
What I might say.
You
Who are not brave
Not invincible
Not certain.
This is not the you I know
The you I know would laugh
And act as if you didn't care
Like it didn't matter.
But it matters to you
To the new you
That I listen.
So I will listen.
And I will tell you
The new you
The old you.
I will tell you
That I am a friend
Of this new you
Too.
