Within Me

Will the world ever see

What lies within me

Or will my life remain a mystery

One minuet flowing

Then next hardening

What lies deep within

What do I consist of

Am I soft and kind

Or hard and cold

Do I fly with the wind

And flow with the sea

Or surge forward with burning flames

And hold my ground with the earth

Not even I know

What is hidden deep below

If what lies hidden were to physically manifest

Would I still be human

Or something else

Wold I see a boy or a girl

Would they be attractive

Or the most ugly thing you've seen

Would they be kind

Or cruel

Wold there be one

Or many

I have an idea

Of who I am underneath

A boy

Who's softer than most

Is kind an warm to touch

Who flows and protects those he loves

But can also be hard as stone

And show no remorse

Haunted by a black shadow

Biding him to do worse

But that is mearly a glimpse

Of the creature that lies within

I wonder if it will ever come out

So I can stop pretending to be something else
