Understanding what inside,
I've always tried to hide,
The anger and hatred behind my pride.

Realizing what I've done,
Hiding from myself I've run,
For escaping reality that can be fun.

Lurking in the shadows I've watched,
Friends and families enjoying life untouched,
Zealous I grew and emotions I've brushed.

Now of 20 I see why,
As a kid I've felt derived,
For life for me was a Lie.

Hatred in the heart came untwined,
Releasing all my heart and pride,
Only to find in its place I cried.....

The heart of pure love from which from I'd hide.
