Why are you so afraid
of showing me who you are
why are you so fake with me
why do you keep putting up a bar

I would like to get to know
the real you
so stop being such a coward
and let me know what you do

I've know you now
for quite a while
only the fake you
who tells me nout
I can't take this no-more
I want out!

Show me the real you
and I promise I will stay
but unless you do
I have to call it a day!

A limit to shyness? I admit that being fake is dumb! But there are some things where for the sake of not hurting other people you have to be…

On to the poem though, it was very nice.
Expressed a lot of how you feel about people sometimes, which I think is good.
When a writer can convey their true feelings through to the reader so that the reader understands, it shows true talent!

One quick thing though, what is, “who tells me nout”, “nout”, what does, “nout”, mean? I keep thinking it might mean, “no”, but I am not positive.
Can you enlighten me on the meaning?
