once life gets harsh/hard, hold your head strong because that's all you can do

The built up of walls
Cautious steps
Fighting the uneven wrinkles
On my clothes
Perfection is the show
Is the performance I adore to show you?
The secrecy
Suddenly collapses since a month ago
Words spoken from you
Leads me to feel out of place
In this world
To know I’m insecure with the person
I live with twenty four seven
Spencer, you speak the truth
A fear to deserve more than a fling
A clear view of insecurity
Unknown of cherishing one person
More than a heart to beat
Afraid of love and pain
Elements I lived without for months
Neglecting my heart
To once fall for one person
Who’ll be my center of my world?
