I am trying my hardest
Please understand
Hardest does not mean best
It does not mean perfect

You are drowning me in expectations and self-doubt
And
Yet
Every other sentence is a 'I believe in you'

What do you mean
What do you mean

I am trying
But it is not enough
For you
Or for me

Maybe

If you listened
If you saw

The tears the fear the hurt the guilt

The unbearable loneliness

I do mean it when I say I have no friends

I have people who talk. I have people who smile.

And yet I cannot remember when I last confessed

what truly lies at the heart or the monster

For I am a villain

A beast

The weapon to be used and wielded
