Blind
People are hushed, abused, or blinded;
positivity and fake enthusiasm, everyone so "avid."
What if someone wants to cry,
but fears it will destroy them?
Paitiently waiting for a reason to get out of bed...
Wanting to melt or spill out your true feelings.
They depend on you to stay stable,
a leg to support ALL but your OWN insecurities
I want to cry with them all
Instead I spill my insides out-
Alone
..everyonebutyou..
I am the valliant Soldier.
the primed Explorer.
the Over-acheiver
above all, the Liar
..thereisalwayssomuchgoingonbutyoucantsayanythingbecauseyouneedtoprovideforeveryonebutyourself..
..everyonebutyou..
When I'm upset, it's me alone in my own insecurities in the mirror angry and saying
"Not good enough"
"Worthless"
"You deserve nothing"
..everyonebutyou..
And, somehow, before I can deny the blade, I am drowning in my own darkness and insecurities. But it is fine, because tommorrow I can easily conceal it with a fraud, thin-lipped grin. The cycle continues ..everyonebutyou..
