What will it take to make me feel alive again...?

What am I?
          This isn’t a philosophical question
          When completely surrounded by perfection
          I can’t help but wonder
          
          Not the light of the life
          Maybe more of a shadow
          A shadow in the stereotypical perfection
          
          I can only isolate myself so much
          Keep quiet for so long 
          Before I completely lose myself 
          
          I shouldn’t feel this way when I’m surrounded by these people
          But
          Even when I look into your all-knowing eyes 
          I can’t help but wonder
          What am I?

You know what? 
          I’m so beyond proud of the makeup smears on my face right now. 
          I’m so beyond proud that I haven’t given up. 
          I’m so sorry for those fake people who decided to leave me. 
          I’m so happy I have people supporting me and holding their breath for me. 
          I’m so happy some understand. 
          The truth is, I’ve suffered. I don’t want to give up just in case things really do get better
