I'll let my tears flow freely,
I'm not afraid for you to see.
For these are the true colors,
of which you gave to me.
I cannot hold my anger in,
it kills me each time,
you ask me a simple question,
and I lie to cover what's mine.

hmmmm... I like the poem. How about "You gave me . . . " or something along those lines??

 "Sa souvraya niende missian ye." \
I am lost in my own mind.

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice
From what I've tasted of desire,
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great,
And would suffice.
-Robert Frost

Sometimes less is more, your poem is short, to the point and well expressed  

Title suggestion:The Colours You Gave Unto Me

Take care,

yes.. effective use of words.. I am not sure though, about the last line..
"and I lie to cover what's mine." "what's mine"? What IS yours? what are you covering? it is a little hard to suggest a title, 'coz I don't understand this line, and, it kinda sounds like the punch line..
but, maybe..
"True Colours" or.. "Don't want to Lie" or..  "I'm not a lie".. umm.. or "I'll let my tears". or something like "I'll lie no more.."

hehe, good luck with your title searching. ^_^

nice work here..
