Do You Really See Me?

This smile.

This warm embrace.

This graceful, energetic look.

Is merely just a show for you to see.

As I'm alone in the dark room the entity seems to mock my every move.

Oh, wait that entity is the real me.

 A sad.

Weak and ugly person.

Devoured by depression and scared that there will be no one to help her.

To become that cheerful, and energetic girl that everyone seems to adore.

I want to be her!

This character of mine is mundane and is getting kinda old.

As I craddle myself and brush my fingers through this silky hair just like the way he used too.

I thought he loved me and would raise me from this dark room.

However, once I pilled this mask off he didn't know what to do, so he ran.

The prince ran from the storyline.

He didn't do his part.

Then for when other say ,"I love you for who you are."

 All that needs to be said is, "Do you really see me?"

For who I am .

The ones that appear to be happy are the ones that are the most saddest inside.

Let be play as this character for a little longer.

Before I go insane from this corrupt mind.

My life is not so pretty like a princess.

Oh, how I wish reality was just a little sweeter.

The artistic part of me seems to dipict my inner self too much.

I want my drawings to change from dark to light .

I wish the window would open soon.

So the new coming day can be the start of a new person.

No longer trapped in darkness.

Let me spread these wings.

So I may sore to the sky that seems so kind and peaceful.

Now that I've told you the thoughts that were left in the corner of my mind in the room.

Do you See Me, as a person of change? 

Do you want to see the real me ?
