Behind closed doors,
Away from the public eye
Do you know what's here,
What you'll really find inside??
Behind the exteriors
The thick walls and brass,
See the optical illusion,
I'm just tinted glass!!
I can pretend to shine,
And reflect the sun's rays.
Make believe life's so fine
Without any bad days.
And if you peer really closely,
You won't get close enough...
All you'll see is your reflection
On my wall of tinted glass.
I could go on and tell you
What's really here inside
I would share the heroic tale
The story of my life.
But sadly, I can't!
I've been burnt one time too much
So here stands my self defense-
My wall of tinted glass...

The poem is a good poem and you have talent. I would advise you for your own mental health and personal happiness to not dwell so much on your problems. Put your talents to use writing happy poems. They would be more enjoyable to read and writing them would make you feel better.
