"The Me Nobody Would Ever See"
I hide what I feel inside
For fear of what you might say.
If life is like a roller ride
Then mine could fly off the tracks any day.
Music eases my troubled soul
And relieves my stress as a whole.
If you were to come in my room
You wouldn't see my inner gloom.
I smile on the outside
So that you won't realize I'm dead on the inside.
If you really looked into my eyes
You'd find the reveal all my outward lies.
I am impossible to label no matter how hard you try
Because I'll retain my individuality until the day I die.
I fall too easily
Even though I know
You could never love me
I still smile and keep up the show.
I try to look on the brighter side
But I see so much pain
When you see the true person they hide
Your thoughts would never be the same.
I don't care to fit in
If you were like me
And had to live in my skin
You is all you'd want to be.
I was challenged to write a poem that expressed me to express myself so that somebody would be able to get to see the real me by my friend Emily.
