Fear of Rejection

March 18, 2019

They say to live your life

you do you

but is that really the truth? 

 

When you choose to be yourself

you're seen right through. 

 

They judge

they torment

it rips you apart. 

 

When you decide not to care

that's when it can "hurt" the most. 

 

Being yourself costs some losses of

fake friends

being hurt. 

 

These things should be lost.

Because if you lose yourself

that's when it will cost.
