PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Confident, strong, a success!
That's what they all want
I play along, I play the game
Proficient at it I've become
I still want the prize!

But I want to peel away the layers
I want you to see the other me
I am strong,
But I am real
I can be a man,
Yet still feel
Yes, I know, you say that's what you want
But I fear you tell a lie

I am no victim
But I have a soul
A soul you wish not to see
You don't want what's really me
