Reflections
written by suicide_penguin03:59 AM 2/14/05Am i really what i say i am
Is that person me
I never knew it would be so hard
To analyse myself
My smile is plastic
My laugh is fake
My tears aren't even sad
Am i really who i think i am
I'm outgoing fun and loving
I'm gentle and sincere
I know thats me i can tell
But the scars lie
They laugh in my face
I was wrong
I'm not the person i thought i knew
It pierces me
But its not fair
As in a world where people love and are loved in return
And fuel themselves with this love
Can i not be fueled by pain
Can i not stand alone
And just be me
The person i know i am
Without comment
So i stare back at myself
In all my glory
Battle scars be them mental or physical
Will still remain
And by remaining with me
They deepen the pain
And that sickens me
To see myself like that |
