The Real Me

Contributed by moonstone629 on Monday, 14th April 2003 @ 02:45:00 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



I would give
Anything to be
One of them
To be accepted
I may act
Normal
On the outside
No one understands
What it’s like
To be me

They don’t have
A civil war raging
Inside their heads
A voice screaming at them
Never letting them
Take pride
I their work
A vicious person
Waiting to lash out
At everyone
Who comes into
Its path

The real me is buried
Deep inside this
Upset, angst-ridden body
Somewhere
Only when in the company
Of the dark, silent, and lonely
Night
Unleashed during
Every sleepless, dreamless night
For a hours
To jot down
My real feelings in
My poetry
Only to be
Chained up again
By this hideous, sadistic
Creature
That I’m not
And no one
Notices that this is
Not the joyous girl
I really am
But merely a zombie
Created by all the taunting
Kids
That caused this
Assertive person
To take over me
Not even my parents
Or teachers
Or friends notice
This is not me

And only one person
Can save me
And that person is
The only one
Who shall take the time
To get to know me
The person
Who will care
Enough to learn
About who I
Really am
That person
Is my savior

and discover...what?
