False identities

False identities

A Poem by prim

How can you expect me to be strong
When my foundation is crumbling?

How can you expect me to keep fighting
When i am not a warrior?

Why do i put on this mask?
This superficial wall.

I wear it everyday
And when i take it off....
 
I wonder...
Would you still love me if i wasn't perfect,

If i didn't have my illusive cloak
That i've my reputation on

A few more months and i'll be free....
And everyday it's calling

But my lies are finally fading
Do i want my true colors shown?

Author's Note

prim
There are many things i could have done to make this better. It's not perfect, and neither am i; i'm tired of pretending to be.
