Hiding
People surround you
The noise overwhelms you
It swallows you up
The sweat drips down your face like raindrops
The whole world is against you
The only one you can trust is yourself
Being different is the way it has always been
The looks, the laughs, the sorrow
No one knows the real you
A costume is worn over your true self
Hide the truth from everyone
No one knows the girl inside
Fear doesn't shut you down
It wakes you up
Look around kid
