Unapologetically Naked

I saw your true self today , And am not pleased to know : That the person I perceived as fire, Is cold and white as snow. I loved the mask you carried ! And the way your opinions varied, With the people around you. And l would keep it that way , If I were to be in your shoe. But you let your emotions rule , You let your strength fade , And then expect me all of a sudden , To love you in all your shades ? Hear me , take my word for this. If you act well , I'll forgive you miss ! Just pick up that mask you dropped. Paint your face with a smile and walk. Keep your inside to yourself. Hide your darkness in locked shelves. Be the person who's more like me Coz' the show must go on , you see ? Do not show yourself wrecked , Do not let go off your facade, Coz' No one loves a person , A person unapologetically naked.
