Different faces
February 12, 2022
Home may not be the sweetest place
Because, they leave me out all the time
But, I always wear my contented face
When my heart wails as I feel like a mime
Then, at school I wear the spoilt face, no choice
Around friends, the dominant face is worn
I wear the enticing face, when I'm around boys
But deep inside, I'm shy and torn
I do wear the brave face, when there's bad news
And the damsel in distress face, when I need a ride
The nice face, when I need anyone's help or views
The innocent face, when my crime, I have to hide
But still I feel to be burnt by blazingly hot fire
Because inside the different faces, I am such a liar

This is so real and vulnerable and I can relate so much. I'm getting better about it, but still. Beautiful piece of writing! Great job
@IzzyMossie137, I have only one thing to say as an older sister; do not try to invade your sister's privacy BUT STILL, look out for her, care for her and always have her back but don't make it too visible to her because no one knows what's in her heart. Maybe she might think that she herself must battle her problems or maybe she might feel like she's wrapped around your finger or even she might get used to the strength that you are there and never do anything which needs to be done by herself, on her own.
Whatever your sister does, whatever she says to you, whatever way she behaves in, embrace her the way she is...❤❤❤
Anyway, Thank you for commenting...🙃🙃🙃

The last line literally made me cry. This is so relatable, not in my account's but my step-sister's. She's like, she wears faces all the time for like almost two years and we realised it recently. And I was more guilty than sad because she's about two months younger than me and that makes me get the position of her older sister. And still, I didn't know if my sister was faking it or making it.
Anyway, back to the sonnet, it was really beautiful and many might have been relatable to it. And the image you've added makes the poem and itself made for each other. Elsa does make faces at times.
