What I Haven't Told
August 31, 2013
How can I tell my parents
That when I look at the skin they made
All I see is an exterior
Too perfect
For the pain I feel inside
How can I tell my friends
That I won’t take pictures with them
Because when I look at myself
Next to them
I feel lesser
How can I tell my teachers
That I don’t do my homework
Because I’m caught up in other worlds
Where my pain
Can’t be felt so loudly
How can I tell myself
That I’m happy
Or pretty
Or smart
When all I ever feel
Is that I’m not
