This Is Me
I am numb
I am never good enough
I am tired
I don't love myself
My smile hides it all
You see me happy
You see a strong person
You don't see the whole picture
I let you see my shield
If you were to look within
You would cry too
If I put down my armor
The tears would flood
The smile would melt away
The laughs would be soundless
The color would drain from my face
You could see the real me
The me I don't even like see
