Social Mask

Social Mask

Sometimes I wish I would not wake
Behold once more my smile fake
A member of the "pretty crew"
Fit in amongst "the chosen few"
Not worry 'bout the clothes I wear
Nor hide away the scars I bear
Not to think of what I eat
Or where to find a vacant seat
Ignore the nasty glares I get
Forget the trials I have met
But time has come for things to change
Get used to this reflection strange
Increase the makeup on my face
And hide behind a thicker case
Maybe now I’ll make some friends
And flaunt them like the latest trends
I’m pleased I wear this social mask
My life seems now a lighter task

Well written.

I think this is a great poem, but I think you ruined it with the rhyming. Poems do not have to rhyme. The jist of the poem is good, but the rhyming is distracting, and it seemed forced. Please don't take offense to this, I am very picky when it comes to poems that rhyme. Other than that, you did a very nice job

dont worry, thanx for the advice, only way i disgree is that when i write poetry, the words come to me straight away, so its not possible for me to force them out, if u get me.
