Internal Conflict

This internal conflict Holding all my secrets inside Is affecting the way I am externally seen Reacting to unknown insecurities in secret Because uneducated people Stigmatize everything I gotta hide all the parts of me They deemed as socially unacceptable To the standards of An unaccepting society But I'd be a misfit and labeled psychotic If I opened the door up to all the parts of me It's hiding It's quite the dilemma Inside of me I'm trying to write it on the wall So it's obvious for others to see Maybe outline opinions That were once outside, with breath now inside me Opinionated, alive Death has fallen upon them Due to judgment from everyone else about how I am supposed to be inside and I guess I can mark down opinions as the cause of death On the autopsy: "Young woman detached from any attachment to this society".
