I am me
I am from the D
From the waters that overlook Canada
I am from Motor city
A place that is loud with inner beauty
I am from the soul
With out an instagram edit, to change the lighting.
without agreeing on a negative topic, to keep from fighting.
Im pale skinned, acne covered, slightly chubby, and mentally ill.
Insecurities unfold all around us
Everyone’s walking around like their aimless
No one shows their true colors
Everyone only judges, why bother
Afraid to show the world
In fear of acceptance
Life can be tough and people acknowledge that
But they don't realize how much I hide
Behind my curtain of lies
They see my shining smile and happy step
But all I feel is depressed and lonely
Inner Self,
Talented, ways
Undefined character
Talkative, over thinker
Finding me.
Find me,
The true me,
Not the one who others want me to be.
Finding me,
The true me,
The way you carry on in life; its inspiring.
The way you smile through the hard times; its breath taking.
The way you rise above obstacles; its motivating.
The way you love us unconditionally; its amazing.
It all started in 8th grade
I was desperate
I needed a way to let the real me through
I felt like all of my friends were failing me
I had to put on a fake smile
Each day I pretended it was all okay
