cold front

selfstruggles

Tarmacadam glistens in the shadow of the rain
brief respite as I walk along, for it will fall again
my shadow races me then falls, I count between the lights
the trickery of shadows offers comfort in the night.
I hear some noisy others with their laughter up ahead
anxiety arrives, head down, hoping nothing is said
I consciously expand and swagger in a manly way
passing this clan, their power known, but nothing they do say.
And I walk on, knowing that my fear was so well hid
for others see me as a man, alone I am a kid.
This illusion is maintained until I turn my key
I shut my door, and like before, I am the real me.
