Behind My Curtain

I just want to make a name for myself, a passion to support myself.

This shy soul has words never spoken before, In my mirror these words are constantly repeated, "You're so much more."

Poetically branded, gamer talented, a lust for the finer things and I can't get past it.

I want you all to open up my mind and vastly explore my minds contents, I am a unique individual that's not a hard concept.

So shy is this soul that alone I don't stand very tall, I easy conform just so I can make it through it all.

The hard days, the fear of what lies ahead in my life, the mentality that makes me only think of what's to come of tonight.

Eightteen years on this earth and I feel that I wasted some on missed opportunites, with self growth slowed the greatest part of me is still a mystery.

What do I want to be? anything I can be? I often ask if I even want to be me.

What I hide behind my smile my curtain, Is a tale of mystery of inmeasurable proportions.

So please acknowledge me and you might learn a thing or two, you might want to know my past.

And I want to know yours too.
