i got called out for being a serious person

there is this thing called the persona in psychology / in which is often called the mask / the social face / what the world sees / i like to call it defense mechanism / for my own sake / to avoid destruction / for all the things non-serious about me / for all the times i laugh at my own jokes / for you / because if i am not a serious person / i would not talk to you / you would not see me cry / you would not hear me laugh / for you / you would not even see a picture of me / how could you complain about a serious person like me / without asking my story / i cannot tell the difference between a hard boiled egg and a soft boiled one/ without actually cracking the shells and looking at it's center / how could you not crack my shells/ before defining my center/ did you not see the walls i have built around myself/ for all the guys who did not take me seriously / for all the people who thinks i'm a joke / how could you accuse me of being too serious / because i turn your offer down / sorry / i cannot play a game of feelings / the one where you have lost to a girl who looks like my ghost / i'm sorry / i cannot put down the armor a guy like you thought me how to wear / but let me thank you / for letting me know that i should also carry a sword with this shield / so if ever the next guy ask me to loosen up as he trespass my body / i would gladly take up my weapons / and tell him / it's all thanks to you
