Why should I pretend to be someone I’m not
Why should I act something I’m not
I want to be honest,
I want to be truthful,
But all that seems to come out are lies
I feel like I’m trying to protect who I really am,
What I really am

How long will I hide behind my protected lies
When I know who I am,
I’ll let you know,
But right now I can’t seem to find who’s really inside,
Who really is hiding
i feel like i don't even know who i am any more

I love the poem. I know the feeling. It sucks majorly. It took me a long time to get that feeling to go away. I finally found who I am and you will do the same. It just takes time.
