Somewhere between now and then
My occasional soda became, monster energy drinks once a week
My three meals a day became "oh, I'm not hungry"
My straight hair became wavy
The blonde became dirty
My good grades became decent
My "happy-feelings-only" turned into a mess of actual emotions
My mask began to slip
Music became a way to drown out my thoughts, instead of just something to bring me joy
Theatre became my therapist instead of just a hobby
My loud, bubbly personality became harder and harder to put up
My "I don't care what anyone thinks" became "why doesn't everyone hate me?"
Another crack in my armor
Which used to be shiny and polished
It is now tarnished and covered in battle scars
My love of life became wanting to disappear
My love of people became pure disgust
My giving of love became available to only a select view
Somewhere between now and then I grew up
I realized the world isn't as good as it seems
People are cruel and hateful
And everything is never what it seems to be
