Who you really are Nice start.

You never stop acting
Never stop hiding
Your emotions I know so many people who are like this. They make me mad. Anyway, reading on...

You always smile
And you always laugh Good repetition here.
Just to cover your fears

But deep inside
You're crying Insert dash here.
You're feeling lonely

Take off your mask
Just for one minute
So I can see you
The real you...

I like this. It suits its title, and brings across a strong story. I can relate to that a lot. I mean, in a way. I'm not behind a mask or anything... im suffering a lot at the moment and I'm putting on an act for my family so they won't know how much it really is eating at me.

The poem was short, had a bit of a weird flow. There is only two mistakes that stood out to me. Firstly you didn't capitalize every line. I guess thats not needed, but it is just how I like it.

Since the others already took care of the crits I would make, Ill just give some opinions. The rythm is a little weird in this poem. Its a little hard to read it because of this. Also, you made odd line breaks. Some things could have been combined but instead, it stopped the flow.

It was good overall, but there is lots of room for improvement.

Who you really are

You never stop acting
Never stop hiding
Your emotions

You always smile Too much like the last stanza.
And you always laugh
Just to cover your fears Bit long.

But deep inside
You're crying
You're feeling lonely Kind of bland.

Take of your mask Do you mean "off?"
Just for one minute Too informal
So I can see you
The real you... Not sure I like the ellipsis.

The others gave the corrections already, so I hope you'll consider them. This poem will be a good one, just a little tweaking on the typos/ mistakes. You can do it! *thumbs-up*
