Real Me
Do you know why I talked about my character?
Sometimes I feel like to become a mariner
Exploring the deep sea
Just to forget what others have talked about me.
Giving the chance to my mind to be free.
They asked me why am I so strange?
And said I need to change.
They told me this is not my age
To behave like I'm in a cage.
They asked me what do I gain?
What does this cage contain?
They want me to explain.
They said I'm so secretive
And in this matter they cannot be appreciative.
They asked me why am I so mysterious?
And always so serious
Why do I cry so often?
Why do I always look so awful?
For me, why is this so common?
Why can't I be like others, feeling awesome?
Why do I always look like I'm fallen and so much in the bottom?
And why do I love sad pictures of Autumn?
Now they want me to answer them.
I can't ,because I'm afraid what would be the outcome?
I know no one can help me
Because everyone can see
This is the real me.
