"She Doesn't See Me"

I try to understand
The girl behind the mask
I long to take her hand
And show her who I really am

But she doesn't see me
As anything but a clown
She doesn't realize
How alike we really are

She is dark, and I am light
But we both feel constant pain
She hides behind her books
I hide behind my smile

She doesn't see me
As the broken person I am
She doesn't understand
How desperately I need her

My sweet Raven
My angel of darkness
My soul mate
My equal, my opposite
