I've got feelings
You do too
But sometimes I feel like
I can't trust youI hide my insecurity
Under my mask
To hide the pain in my face
And the scars from my pastSometimes I feel like
I don't belong
And that I can't make a difference
In this worldI'm not who you think I am
With that fake smile
Plastered on my faceI cry myself to sleep
Because when I think of me
I don't think of beauty
I don't think of belongingI've suffered more pain
Than you can actually see
Because I'm good
At not being meI think of the times
That I have cried
And I think
What good does this make?So I brush away the tears
Cover up the pain
And plaster that fake smile
Everyday on my faceYou can look at me on the outside
And I'll say that I'm fine
But really
I'm dying insideI feel like I'm not loved
And in the middle of a storm
In the middle of the rain
I stand there
And let the tears flow down my faceI feel awkward and different
I feel alone and scared
I know I have friends
But they might not always be thereYou can look at my past
And say it's not that bad
But for me it was
You have no idea how I feelI don't know what to do
Anymore with my life
I don't feel like I can do
What I want to in lifeSometimes I feel like
I'm all alone
But as I cry myself to sleep
I know they're watching over me
As I hope for sweet dreamsI'll never fit in
Like all of the rest
But I know that I'm loved
By the ones who I miss.

A/N
I absolutely love this poem. The first time I read it, here on wattpad, I could relate to every word. I was slightly devastated when the author deleted it, so I thought I might as well bring it back 😁.
