Do i dare to breathe
a word to the people
around me or do i stay
in the shadows and let
them believe the painted
image i have put around me
Do i reveal the cracks and
blemishes that are covered
with years of sarcasm and
humor that kept all the
monsters chasing me at bay
I remember the banishment
that i was thrown into when
i let to much be seen the banishment
when ice replaced every word
i would try to speak the person
i had shown myself to be was
no longer welcome at her home
A new town and new face may
not change the perception of
there only being monsters waiting to
come out of me Do i show these new
people the illusion or show them
what had become so feared
