The Surface

Can you tell the way i act is a facade?,

hiding how i feel inside cant say i feel alive,

The Surface is just a costume that covers our emotions,

constantly letting pain build instead of freeing it like an open field,

my emotions are conjuring up a storm inside,

sometimes i can be hot, cold or warm its been like this ever since i was born,

how do i change the way i am?,

how do i get out of this lock without a key? all i want is for me to be free,

the truth is you cant change who you are but you can control who you become,

The surface is what we use to hide what we feel inside.

    This is really good. I like how it digs deep and speaks a world truth that we all feel and can relate to at one point in time or another.
    Good luck in the contest.
