Poem
I can't really say I know how it feels Cause this is a sensitive shoe And it's not a one size fits all But I've at one point worn that shoe And I can say it wasn't comfortable It hurt me real bad cause it was tight I felt like I was caged like an animal Imprisoned by own fears and insecurities I felt like I wasn't worthy anymore A feeling of hopelessness I shared It was a bitter cup of tea that I can't invite you For it drained me to the bone And I lost a lot of hair cause I was thinking Picking my brain a lot and not finding answers Just more questions that left me questioning me I became withdrawn chosing to be in That even when I was out I'd still be in Hiding myself inside my body Fighting a war that you'd only see in my eyes Cause they'd break at times into tears I felt I was all alone in this world Like every other person was just a bystander And it would hurt seeing others laugh Cause I felt like they were laughing at me While I was hurting and nothing seemed to work It's like the rough patch was going though Was too deep that I needed repair But all it could get was patches That only left some more scars on me And I could dress up more to hide them My glow waned, and my smile darkned I could no longer see my reflection But deep down I could tell myself I've been here already and I can get through this And even though I got through it, it felt like I lost a part of me But that's why I keep trying to be better Surrounding myself with positive things Telling people that whenever I'm not myself They give me time alone but at the same time check on me Cause deep down I know that even when I'm alone I don't want to be lonely The PO£T
