Insecurities
Why does it hurt everyday?
Does anybody else ever get it?
A feeling like everybody is
Physically and mentally
Judging you by all your
Insecurities.
It seems like nobody really knows me,
The real me.
I know I'm not perfect, but who is?
Do you ever just get a feeling like
Everyone's better than you?
Because it's how I feel almost everyday
It feels like your being judged, teased by all your
Imperfections.
It feels like everyone's better than you
They don't have acne,
They don't feel annoying,
They probably don't feel like failures
So why do I feel like this everyday?
It's like I'm being compared to a rock,
Boring and useless.
I'm too afraid to stand up for myself
I can't even be courageous enough
To actually get myself included.
And when you don't talk to too many
People or don't raise your hand a lot
You feel stupid.
Stupid to others, and when you do it say
Just one little thing wrong
It feels as if that's when it all starts
The pointing,
The whispering,
The laughing.
Sometimes you have to think though
Will I ever belong somewhere?
Will I get anywhere in life?
Will someone come and pick up the broken pieces?
Or will things finally decide to go smoothly?
