There is another me
One I keep from view,
You don’t understand
Why I’m afraid to show you.
Each day I pretend to be
The girl you knew so well
So you can continue to think
There’s nothing to tell.
It’s not that I don’t trust,
Just I’m afraid to see
How everything would change
And you might hate the real me.
If you looked closer
You might find traces of fear,
Someone longing for a person to tell
Waiting for you to hear.
Experiencing more than one can handle
I lose more of my soul.
I fight the battle
But forget my goal.
Behind my safe wall
I’ll continue to hide
Until it’s safe to come out
And push my fears aside.
