Civil War
I dont want to face
Real
She scares me and makes me uncomfortable
She embarrasses me in front of the people I love
sometimes I hate her
So I hide her
And pretend that I don't know her
Tell people that we are not affiliated
And I betray her so I can be friends with
Fake
She helps me not only get friends
But she helps me keep them
I welcome her with a warm embrace
But her hugs, though enthusiastic,
Are continuously cold
And yet, I ignore this flaw
In the same way that I ignore Real
This poem is about:
Me
My family
My community
My country
Our world
