Real Me

It is hidden
to the naked eye.
Only a few
have seen it.
Under the miles of
secrets and lies,
it hides.
Not many care to look
but it can be found
under my smile
under my act
under my appearance.
It is the real me.
The one I save
from the hurt
from the pain
from the world.
If you see it
catch it
before it leaves.
