E - vading you in fear of being beguiled
A - lways trying to hide my emotions but
F - eeling it intensify as I pile on more layers...*

A/N: *Studies show that when people are mourning or in grief, they tend to wear layers.
In this case, it could also be interpreted to mean piling on more layers of denial.
Err..., anyhow, this is my second attempt at whimsical writing, a.k.a. writing poems. *crosses fingers and hopes it's not too lame...* Please review, especially if you find it bad, because if you don't tell me why you think it's bad (nicely, please! I'm only human.) and what can be done to improve it, then how can I ever stop being bad at this??!
**Extra special thanks to Lynne for pointing out that horribly blatant mistake! I can't believe I did that, even if I did write the poem in a hurry. But I've fixed it now, thanks again Lynne!
So, below is the fixed version! I left the errored one up so you can all laugh at me and see how different the new one is from the old one...
