My Insecurities

I just keep faking it.
Smiling thinking I'm making it.
They all think I'm okay.
They all think I'm not insecure.
They don't know I'm dying inside.

The light they see through me,
Is not the same as i see through myself.
Even though I tell myself that I'm the most
beautiful girl on earth,
I know it ain't the truth, I'm just tryna hide 
My insecurities from myself 

My mind wanna explode everyday!
The depression and the pressure are 
Gettin worser everyday.
Each day my insrcureness increases rapidly.
But i try to hide it by telling people that I'm 
the most intelligent ,beautiful and successful girl
that God has ever created on earth.
I know they won't see my insrcureness 
because i tell them one same lie 
with a smile on my face everyday.

Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed. (By the way, please check your title; M6 must be My, right?)
