Poetry: Enlightenment

I refuse to be taken at face value.
Because there is so much more to me.
More then this visage you see.

Not just the anger, or fear, or shyness.
Beyond all that.
There is profound love, passion, fire, intensity.

I've hidden this side for so long.
It's time for the rest of the world to see this.
My chance to show everyone what I'm made of.
My chance to truly make my mark.

It's my time to be better.
To find my voice.
To find my place.
To find my love, my passion.

I needn't stand in the back
Not anymore, not now.
There are too many people that need to know.
There are too many people that should be enlightened.

Everyone must know.
That there is much more to me then face value.

    Clarity



    Other people's opinions
    Do not define me!

    Only undermine
    My ability
    To choose
    The road less traveled.

    It is they
    That would
