Hiding. Poem by brianna c...

Hiding.



I hide my tears with smiles.
I hide my pain through laughs
I hide behind a wall
too afraid to let it down.
If people see the real me,
they might not like it.
I cover myself with lip gloss
and nice clothes,
so that maybe they'll buy it.
the real me is lost.
the real me is broken,
if you fix i'll be golden.
but the lip gloss is off and the clothes are dirty.
the real me is out.
so i take some mascara.
i shave and put on nail polish.
i wash the clothes and bye new lip gloss.
do you still like me?

Wow, it's amazing how truthful this piece actually is. You'd be surprised with the amont of girls that hide themselves this way; because they're afraid of what other people will think of them. Good write. H&K's - jessica ♥
