The me outside of me


Everyone has a mask

including me

I live a different life in public

I pretend to be someone im not

At home or with certain people I have no filter

The mask comes off

i do my own thing

The real me

The more beautiful  me shines

In public im tough

No real emotion shows

At home im a emotioal wreck 

a brutally blunt individual

At school I dress up 

For individuals that don't care

In my shelter i don't care what others think

I don't share the things i enjoy

keep things to myself 

in comforte i share everything

constantly talking

Everyone has a mask 

some keep it on all the time

and some take it off

I like taking mine off

I'm a unique individual

I have a me outside of me 

Eveyone does

They need to show who they really are
