Real Me Poem by patrick o'shaughnessy

look into my eyes
tell me what you see
look down deep
do you see the real me

i keep myself hidden
secret from the normal eye
i hold all this inside
while secretly i die

i hide behind my smile
though it slowly fades away
you would never guess i hold sorrow
by all these things i say

please come help me out
cause im slowly falling apart
im slowly fading everday
its tearing at my heart

i need to feel like im on top
like ive finally won
instead of looking for the dark
i want to find the sun
