I love the idea of "poem within a poem" so here is my attempt at it!
I'm
                                  gonna be famous,
                                  known for my acting.
                                  But I never realized how hard it is
                                  to plaster on a smile and say
                                  "Oh, I'm okay."
                                  It feels like just when I think I'm fine
                                  I end up getting crushed. I'm
tired
                                  of these games. Sick of pretending
                                  it isn't completely crushing me.
                                  I'm too afriad
of
                                  losing you. I can't feel my heart
                                  anymore because I know it's broken.
                                  Completely torn apart.
                                  I didn't know I could go on
hurting
                                  like this. But like the good actress I am
                                  on goes the make up, away goes the tears
                                  And the
                                            show
                                                    continues.
