Who I am


I am not a kid

I am not a girl

I am not a person

I'm just a ghost

within a shell.

I am not a fighter

I am not a killer

I am just afraid

Just a poor beginner.

I am just a woman

looking for an answer

among faces

among masks

that fail to look you

in the eye.

Save me from this pain

from my hell

before i lose myself

among my lies

among my hate.

I am me

no I'm not

I'm a lie

just a fake

just a lost away.
