deep within the center of our being
thoughts and emotions lie unseen
billions of atoms floating about
sometimes they cannot help but shout
so out comes the smile
it lasts for a while
sometime the tears
dismaying those near
people do not like you to show your truth
they would rather live above and aloof
you get in where it bleeds
you allow your emotions freed
this is uncomfortable for most
they would rather cheer and give a toast
they call you “sensitive” like it was a crime
to be so human and not a mime
amazing how often it is said with disdain
like i am suppose to change and hide in the rain
it hurts when they say it in such a demeaning way
but you are who you are, and will not sway
perhaps your truth is too much to bear
you do not be it to show or scare
it is who you are for all its wear
it is sad to be so misunderstood
it is lonely and difficult under the hood
but you made a choice long ago
no longer would you hide your glow
be it happy, smiling, angry or sad
it is who you are…just be glad
you have passion for the truth
not the mediocre stifled booth
