Afraid.
I wear a mask to hide how I feel.
While they let their emotions rip off like a peel.
I want to act the same, I really do.
But I'm afraid if I do that they'll rip me in two.
They greet me with waves and hugs and smiles.
So I tell them I'm sorry and that I'll stay a while.
And maybe, maybe just for today,
I'll let my stony mask just fall, fall away.

..Just some dumb/quick poem I made for Poem In My Pocket Day at school.
