Halves
There is a half of me
That begs to be noticed
It dresses me in dazzling colors
Pleading for attention
It throws insane words past my lips
Waiting for eyes to turn to me
It dyes my hair a blazing red
And fills my eyes with the ocean's hues
The other half wishes to hide
Behind curtains of hair
And the designs of a jacket
Trying to shrink back into dark corners
To be seen would be torture
And isolation death
But there is no place in this world
For someone who hides in the open
