People are like presents,
the good stuff is inside.
So often we put on a mask
in order for to hide

The person who we really are,
the one authentic you.
It’s scary letting others know
a you that’s foreign to

Their preconceived assumptions
of who it is you are.
It’s easier to just fit in
but then you will be far

From just the very person,
you know yourself to be.
So help unwrap the gift that’s you.
Unwrapping sets you free.
