can you see me?

I'm hiding in the back room
afraid to be seen
by all the searching eyes
staring down at me
they all are saying things like
"you should not be here"
i'm afraid if i stay much longer
i may lose my cheer
i'm hiding in the closet
afraid of being judged
can you see me?
hiding in the back room?
looking for your help
can you see beyond the mask
you stupid little welp
