Shades

When I'm scared,

I stand up tall

And face my fear,

Shivering and all.

Sometimes I fail,

Sometimes I fall,

But I always go back.

When I'm sad,

I talk it out,

Resolve things,

Leave out the doubt.

Exchange of words

Can help out

And things will get better.

When I'm angry,

I simply breathe,

Count to ten,

And I relieve.

Again I talk,

The anger leaves.

We hold hands and are friends.

When you're around

I crash.

You never get a chance

To see these beautiful

Shades of me.
