I'm scared you won't understand,
So I'm hiding from you.
If you saw the real me,
You would call me a monster.

I'm scared you won't understand,
So I'm showing you a fake.
This fake shows nothing,
Yet you still give it a kiss.

I'm scared you won't understand,
So I'm leaving you alone.
Both of me in hiding,
Still loving you from afar.

I'm scared you understood,
So I'm leaving you alone.
You've caught my emotions
And twisted my life.

I'm scared of you,
So I'm running away.
Running until I'm free,
of your happy memory.

I think its great, it makes me think of my poem Monster in some ways. You definatly have your own style, i found that lots of your poems end with the last two lines rhyming but nothing else, i like it.

Gerard Way: &quot;Hey, girls, you&#039;re beautiful. Don&#039;t look at those stupid magazines with sticklike models. Eat healthy and exercise. That&#039;s all. Don&#039;t let anyone tell you you&#039;re not good enough. You&#039;re good enough, you are too good. Love your family with all your heart and listen to it. You are gorgeous, whether you&#039;re a size 4 or 14. It doesn&#039;t matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you&#039;re a good person, as long as you respect others. I know it&#039;s been told hundreds of times before, but it&#039;s true. Hey, girls, you are beautiful.&quot;
