The Fight With(in) Me
These tears running down my face,
Causing cracks in my well put together lie.
Seeping into my fake smile like justice through the grasp of oppressors!
Internal screams
Why are you fighting against me!
You are inside for a reason!
No one wants to see you!
No one wants to understand it!
Don’t you see, you fool!
The lie is a necessary cover for you!
You need me to be your outside!
You wouldn't survive if it was any other way.
I work so hard to keep it together to protect you!
How dare you try to embarrass me!
You are me but on the inside!
The pain you feel, we feel!
At night in the dark when we are one, who nurses these delicate tears??
Me! You! We do!
Which arms grab at the sides to stop you (us) from ripping apart?
Me! You! We do!
You think I’m the one that’s fake when we are just ONE!
Now u seep out at the corners,
Trying to catch me out when all I’ve ever done is give you the protection that you NEEDED!
But that’s ok!
These hands will no longer run to my face to catch or wipe away the truth.
You think they will accept you for what you truly are??
You fool!
Everyone needs someone
And I am/was your someone!
You can’t be weak in and out,
You needed my façade.
I thought you were worth protecting too,
I really did.
Yes, weak but widely misunderstood.
But now I see your selfish and only crave attention.
You’ll do anything to be heard and seen,
Even destroying yourself.
I hope you make a life out of it because I am done.
Take the front seat!
See how they like you now.
