Overheard a conver and got this in my head.


"Public" Face

Everyday You.....

put on your "public" face
and you're dying on the inside
but can't show it on the outside
you don't feel you fit in with the "normal" human race.

You're seaching.....

for a place where you can belong
and you try but seem so
outta tune with the "real world's" song.

You know.....

that it's wrong to
wear your heart on your sleeve
when real life starts crushing you
and in dreams you no longer can believe.

But still.....

everyday you put on your "public" face
and you've died on the inside
but appear alive on the outside
you're just looking for someone
to help you fit in with the "normal" human race.

.....Can you help?
