Hide
A drawer is like a couch
Keeping your secrets within it
For the couch has seen what you really love
It stores all your core memories inside
Within the comfort of its cushions, you'll find the long lost treasures that you hide
The drawers shelves store you inside
The things you like and what you wear
But it also stores what no one knows, the things you secretly own
The couch whispers to your ear
It shouts at you to be yourself.
When no ones home you flip the cushions
To the side that's fully stained
That way no one will notice the marks left
When the door knob seems to turn
You quickly flip them back again
The cushions once more shine a perfectly white slate.
With a whisper, “Be you”

Sometimes our inner self shows a little too much, but its to remain trapped. Were often taught, its something we need to hide.
