 who am I

that's a question 

I still have no answer to 

I like to read 

I like to write 

I love music 

theater and art 

but who am I as a person 

sure I'm nice  and I care 

sure I'm smart 

though I'll never show it 

I'm super social 

I love people 

but in all reality 

id rather be alone 

with no expectations 

cause at the end of the day  

I'm afraid 

of what people will think of me

I'm afraid

 that my grades aren't good enough 

I'm afraid  

I don't try enough 

I'm afraid 

I'm not pretty enough  

I'm afraid   

that no matter how many times I start over 

things will all be the same 

I try and act brave 

but in reality, I'm not 

so who am i 

I am a coward  

who pretends to be everything they're not 

ill hide behind a book 

ill hide behind a screen 

ill hide behind this wall I put up

 because id rather not face my reality
