EMOTIONAL CANCER

You keep your true self,
Beneath a protective shell.
It could take some time,
For someone to know you well.

You are a sensitive soul;
Taking things seriously.
You're highly emotional;
You're affected deeply.

You need something to care about;
Something to cling on to.
You're a treasure to your friends,
And what a friend they'll have in you.
