Title: Melted Facade

Description:Sometimes it feels like who I am is a melting facade. Like no one really sees the face of my truth, for all that they see is the face of their own expectations of me. Exposure of self seems destructive, so I find the melted facade easier than the truth of self that no one wants to see anyway.

Exposing under the facade
Built on melted wax,
Hidden behind a constructed
Image of a perfect visage.

Truth peering through
As the melting began,
Showing that which
I fear has always been.

Exposure through the cracks
As the facade melts away,
Teaching the truth of who
Is reality anyway.
