My Poker Face

My Poker face


I know you judge me,
But if you only know.
How much I have to pretend 
You will understand.

High collars, long sleeves,
And a pants even if it’s hot.
You ask me, if I am silly,
Or just a lady with a different fashion style.
If you only know me, you will understand,
How much I have to pretend.

You think I am too serious,
Not laughing for your jokes.
It will hurt to laugh,
Where my rib case are beaten to a pulp.
If you only know me, you will understand,
How much I have to pretend.
