To you I am glorified,
A masterpiece,
A success story.

But behind my mask,
Lies the gilded pain,
The horror story of a student.

The grass is always greener on the other side.
A kaleidoscope of happiness and charm.
But much to your surprise I'll say,
That not everything is sparkly and calm.

Oceans turn into tsunamis,
And clouds do bring thunderstorms.
So before you assume th best of something,
Take a closer look at it's worst.

Know the back story.
Then only you can truly appreciate the cover story.
The final draft.

The published novel.
The glossy final print.

Only then, you will know it all.
