Unidentifiable
March 13, 2016
I am a social chameleon
Constantly changing
Adapting to my surroundings
Morphing into who others need me to be
Changing colors is my defence mechanism
I am an actor in my own movie
Withholding my emotions
Playing the part
Creating a mask
I am a mirror
Reflecting people's best traits
Mimicking human perfection
I am a human
Concealing my flaws
suppressing my true self
who eventually disappears amongst
My many camouflages
When the colors fade, when the movie ends, when the mirror cracks,
who will I be

latley i have been feeling like a social chameleon: someone who changes their attitude depending on who they're with or where they are.
