Life on display poem
Life on Display
the life i lead and have led has been on display for all to see all its faults all its failures all the goals unachieved all the memories erased from mine's eye.
Day after Day, our lives are on display for others to see for them to judge in secret and in-person we cant hide our true selfs because its not a choice for us to be secret. We have to do it behind close doors even then we are not in private because the judges are the friends we have and the family we are born to.
Time and Time Again i think about hiding away from the green-eyed monster hiding from all that can change my point of view, of myself.
we can say that others opinions dont matter but we know the truth of it is that it does matter to us, in all the ways we say and dont saywe keep that to our selfs to make us seem more independant that we dont care about what others think, because we are ashamed.
we blame ourselfs for everything that has happened to us but cant bring words to light and make it know, that we DO care what you think.
Hiding our personal life is impossible someone
will always get in and under our skingetting in
and making us feel unsafe and vunerable to the
breaking point but our personal life is always
going to show either from face or from mouth mouth
of those we trust and keep close
Face of ours
because we cant hide all of our emotions,
nobody can.

Life on Display
For all to see
Come one, Come all
take a gander of the failures
that i have created and lived
gawk at everything that has become good
and yet turned to shit notice the lies.
i have kept and the truth that i cant showmake mockiers of me,
stone me for the burdon that i am burn me for the ritual cleansing
kill me for sacried truths and hopes.
The life
i have led and still lead
Will always be...
