The Suit

She feels like she's wearing a suit that doesn't suit her soul Will she take it off? No Why? People would see her soul, bare and hollow "No one truly knows me," she cries. That's because she won't let them She's scared if she took the suit off no one would care to know her Is that valid? Maybe Is that healthy? Probably not hers is a tired soul that dips and raises as it pleases The dips are low and long The raises high and short Would anyone care to see the darkness setting in her eyes? or would they just ask questions, make judgments, or shut her away Could they understand the calm pool of sorrow that sits amidst restless waves of anxiety and loneliness? She thinks not no one would take it as deeply or seriously as her "depressed sad sack", "emo wannabe", "moody, useless child" The impression she'd give is clear So she's made a suit ill fitting at times yet livable She's a well adjusted person She's smart and considerate She makes jokes and talks small She's friendly enough to be liked yet distant enough to never keep friends awkward enough to lose potential love The suit has it's draw backs would she benefit from taking it off? Maybe she'd find people who like her for the soul not the suit Maybe Maybe not
