Cameron Sanderson Poet Epitaph

Hell On Earth

In my mind I try to see,
A place where I can just be me,
I cannot find a place to go,
That let's me be the me I know,
They all expect a certain me,
The one that they all want to see,
The one that looks the way I should,
I wish I was I wish I could,
But this just isn't me,
The me that they all want to see,
For I am hidden deep inside,
I'm bound and gagged and I am tied,
To everyone's picture of me ,
A picture only they can see,
I need to take myself away,
And be true to me for just one day .
