13. Calmness I Lack

Sorting through all

The bullshit.

Drowning in the lies.

Waiting for some answers.

Fearing the goodbyes.

Trying to act natural

While feeling like a fake.

Nothing's ever easy for

Hands that always shake.

Nervous that he's right,

that I'll never get to be

That strong, smart, beautiful girl,

The one (maybe) inside of me.

I dream every night

That one day I'll crack

From all the pressure.

It's calmness I lack.

And everyone will

Find out who I am

And no one will ever

like me again.
