Transparent

You try to speak as if you have some kind of depth
yet i choke from trying to quench my thirst in such shallow thoughts
you open your mouth and deceit spills out
you try your best to blend in …
when in fact your true colors are transparent…
I can see right through you…
Go be yourself 
By yourself…
You are the only one who can stand you

Sadie,, Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your poetry. At this very moment, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your writings. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT

This is an intriguing poem as it opens doors to many interpretations, always a good thing in my thinking about poetry. Well written and to the point.
