Pretend

I like to pretend

That I'm a good person.

I like to pretend 

To be confident.

I like to pretend

To know who I am. 

But that's all it is.

Pretending. Make believe. 

Truth is

I'm a horrible person.

My 'confidence' is only a mask I wear daily.

My assurance of who I am

Of my personality

Is all just an attempt to feel secure 

In this skin that I am trapped in

For the rest of my life.
