Inside and Out

Still I see
Another part of me
Undiscovered

I long so much
To let it out
But what will people think

Every day I put on a mask
To hide my imperfections
Why can't people learn their lesson
And accept me as I come

I want to fit in
But don't want to lose myself
Just to play in a silly game
called popularity

If only people could see
How the superficial really are

The pressures of the world
Seem to be on me some days
But I just sit and gaze on
the true me
