⚠️intrusive thoughts⚠️
You know, as they say
Eyes reveal everything
Yet, mine hide all emotion
Except for joy
I am told,
They shine brightly
Yet why do I feel so dull?
These eyes,
Betray my emotions,
But I am glad.
They hide my feelings
I cloak this darkness,
With a shiny coat,
Of a shimmering personality,
That burns brightly
In order to carry on.
I will do my best,
To keep it like this,
People think I am one way,
I think I am another.
I lay here and think,
Why do I keep hiding?
Is it worth it?
The answer: No.
Yet I carry on like this,
Hoping no one will notice,
For my façade is weak,
It is slowly crumbling.
I struggle to define myself.
Am I the sincere, brilliant being?
Or am I the dark, dim one?
~~~~~~
WOO!
That actually took me about a week to write.
