Under the Surface

Under the surface,
I burst with color - 
magic and ideas bubbling out of my mind. 
But outside: quiet, shy, unknown.
___
Under the surface,
I keep my temper in check
Let myself breathe
But outside: angry, righteous, scared. 
___
Under the surface, 
happiness is allowed, 
laughter and love. 
But outside: sharp, unenthusiastic, silent. 
___
Under the surface, I bloom
And so do you. 
But it takes more than a spark to see it through.
