Outside lives a boy with a smile that will
brighten up the room,
yet inside hides a boy with a frown full of
despair.
Outside lives a boy with eyes of joy that
brings you to ease,
yet inside hides a boy shedding tears of
sadness.
Outside lives a boy with a beautiful laugh
that's contagious,
yet inside hides a boy screaming his lungs
out in unwanted anger.
Outside lives a boy with the personality
everyone envies,
yet inside hides a boy full of insecurities
and shame.
Outside lives a boy who is fearless and
tough,
yet inside hides a weak boy who lives in
fear.
Outside lives a boy full of life,
yet inside hides a boy full of pain, wanting
to die.
Outside lives a boy with a perfect image,
yet inside hides a boy with regrets and
mistakes.
Outside lives a boy of innocence,
yet inside hides a boy with tremendous
guilt.
Outside lives a boy with goals and
aspirations,
yet inside lives a boy lost in confusion.
What you see on the outside is my personal
disguise,
What hides underneath you can't even
begin to imagine.
