What are you trying to be?
You aren't a good daughter neither a good student and nor a good friend.
Who are you?
Why do you keep hurting people?
Why is that your happiness depends on others?
Why isn't it within you?
Your hurtful, painful, harmful;
For yourself and for others too.
If I cry, I'm a loser;
If I don't, I don't care.
How is that even fair?
I pretend to care,
While it hurts deep down there.
Whom am I trying to prove?
Friends? Family? people?
Or to myself? About all that I can do?!
I'm such a horrible person,
With wounds unhealed:
I wake up every morning,
To be someone I wish I could be..
I'm not alone, yet feel lonely..
Whom to talk, share or pourwholeheartedly,
When talking time is five minutes only...
I wish, hope and pray,
To change all these words,
From negative to better...
I wish, hope and pray,
To be a better person as a whole..
I wish, hope and pray,
To be a better daughter, a good student and a helpful friend that they deserve..
