Finding yourself can take a life time... and no matter who you find under those layers, I'd bet you could use a hug!
I've lived my life... Behind jackets, Behind baggy pants, And long sleeves, Behind a masked opinion Guarded humor, Behind the hope Of superficial dreams. I've lived my life in hiding Scared... Of ridicule, Biased critiques, Shallow proposals, Secret vendettas, From malicious gossip leaks. Embracing caution... Existing just to please. Inevitably shifting focus To everyone else's needs. Invisible on purpose Shamefully, the martyr no one sees Lies beneath the layers Of the someone I called "me." copyright Aug. 2008
