Write a story that involves this line of speech.

Fake It Till You Make It

She's not who she says she is

Who she acts like

The act she puts on

She seems confident

Fearless

She acts like she can do anything

But when the door closes and she's all alone

Her mask falls

Inside she's scared

Anxious

Insecure

Shy

And awkward

But when she puts on the mask

It makes her feel better

Maybe if she keeps acting brave

One day she will be

Just keeping going

Take another step

Maybe if she acts like she loves herself

One day she will

Maybe if she acts outgoing

One day she will be

She believes she will

And day-by-day

She's getting better

Getting more hopeful

She's smiles more

A real smile

Not her mask

And she realizes

It's okay to let down your mask sometimes

It's okay to be scared

As long as it doesn't stop you

But sometimes you have to Fake It Till You Make It






The end.
