An unexpected Facade.

On the inside he is fragile,
On the outside he is strong,
He looks so very agile,
Walks like nothing could go wrong,
But he always insecure,
And he’s feeling paranoid,
He wants a love thats pure,
But it’s pain he must avoid,
They say that he’s a hero,
He thinks that is unfair,
Nothing but a zero,
Drowning in dispair,
Nothings really wrong with him,
It’s only his self doubt,
He see’s the futures grim,
So he just goes and lets it out.

Love is a friendship caught on fire.

I think this poem could be related to the killings in the highschools that have happening lately. This provoked some serious thoughts in my head. I thought you wrote this nicely.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Great poem! I love your work, and I can't wait to read what's next... I agree with Dopes, this does make me think of the shootings that's been going on lately. Nice poem.

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

I was thinking what Javier was... seems like it could be related to the shootings.
Great job.

I like this one a lot, because it reminds me so much of someone I care about. He had me fooled for the longest time, but I'm beginning to realize that he isn't who he seems to be. Great work, Marshalzu.
