Read a Life

Look into my eyes. Tell me I don't understand. Can you read my story. Do you know my history. Will you just guess and tell me what I am. Can you hope to see the years written on my hands or the scars painted on my chest? They say don't judge a book by it's cover.
Don't judge a life by today. Kings have fallen, paupers have risen.
No, these things are hidden deep. They aren't read like a book, learned like a formula. If you don't know me, you don't know my story. How can you say I can't understand if you don't know where I've been or what I've seen?
