The Real Me

I'm afraid scared inside yet
my feelings I well hide.
Worried thoughts tears I hold
inner pain left untold.
Panic grips my heart tight
as I weep alone at night.
How I got here I don't know
yet, my fears will never show.
Only those who read the words I write
share the secrets of my fright.
Face to face you'll never see
the real person trapped in me.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
