Drama Queen?

Build up the wall

strengthen the shell

my biggest weakness?

I hide too well

The façade too strong

for oh-so-long

my false character

can get so wrong

Rotting behind my wall

decaying behind my fear

imaginary scars block me

from getting out of here

I make more mistakes

my personae at war

I’m living a lie—

and I don’t know what for

One hyper, energetic

yet psychotic, insane

my life’s work as an actor

no inhibitions, no pain

One quiet, cold mourning

depression at best

suicidal, apathetic

just yearning for rest

I try to revise it

caught between extremes

sometimes I’m normal

sometimes sanity’s just a dream

Don’t hate me, I beg you—

I’m still just a girl

trying to find herself

in this two-faced world
