This Facade
On the outside I seem 
 Calm
 Collected
 Carefree
 Content.
 That happy-go-lucky girl
 Who marches on
 Unscathed, 
 Fearless and strong- 
 The one who survives
 beating after beating
 with a smile on her face
 But really, 
 I’m terrified
 Distraught
 Self-conscience
 Instead of the confident 
 That everyone seems to see
 And I don’t know why
 Or what to do.
