Flawed

I am flawed.
Crying in my own corner.
Stuck in a beautiful, perfect world.
Underneath all this beauty, lies unfurl.
What they say isn't true.
Life isn't beautiful.
It is dark.
Shadowy and shady.
Sad and blue.
I wish that
Shadows would engulf me
Hiding me from the perfect world
That I live in.
Because I am
Flawed.  


When people tell me,

"You're not truly sad"

"I've seen you happy before"

What they don't know

doesn't hurt them.

It only

Hurts the one

Who knows she is Flawed.

I say back: "What do you know? You don't truly know me, do you?"

Because I know it's true.

I cry, under the blankets at night

I do everything wrong.

Something's trying to pull me out.

 I can't reach

Because I am

Flawed.





My terrible poetry strikes again.
