Prompt-

Prepare a poem with three parts:

A part about the real, inside you.

    A part about the you, you present.

    A part about the you, the world sees.

Hidden in the shell of my being

I see the values of myself

Running to help others

And turning away from what they think of me

Not wanting to see what lies there


I put myself on full display

With no secrets to hide

But I am cautious with who I meet

And wonder if the full value of my being is met


The world perceives me as a collection

Stormy or perhaps cold

But also possessing the raging fire of passion

The beaming joy of the sun

And the sadness of the rain


Ready to merge my mentality and appearance

Into a complete unit
