18/F My world may be full of pain / but I can still write
I'm scared of smiles It can hide so much pain It has so much secrets not everyone can attain Everyone smiles but not all smiles are true It may be picture perfect but it hides pain for a few I saw someone smile even with tears in her eyes As she saw people leave without uttering a goodbye So don't go around Judging people by their smile You never really know if they're dying inside

Smile
I started to change, when I decided to love you I learned to dress nicely and gave gifts to you too I dyed my hair brown It reminded me of your eyes And got clothes colored red, the color you always liked I tried to loose weight so you might like me more And I changed the way I act I wasn't me anymore, You started to like me for all the changes I decided to have I loved you for who you are You loved me for who i'm not

Who I'm Not
I'm jealous of those people Who end their days so well They don't have to think twice If they are living in hell I live constantly in pain always feeling agony I don't feel sorry for myself I made myself this tragedy Every night before I sleep I have a habit of overthinking "I shouldn't have said that" "Was I too much?" "Am I really not enough?" These thoughts linger my mind As I feel forgotten and left behind but I have no right to complain I made my life this way

My Fault
Just like a moth I'm drawn to your light Desperate to find warmth During these cold nights I have to be cautious of whats real or fake One wrong move and my life is at stake

Drawn to your Light
And just like a butterfly You appreciate me when i'm there Then forget i ever existed Once I disappear

Butterfly
Each day I wake up And let my messages buffer, What if someone chatted? while I was on my slumber I received the usual messages From groupchat's of school and friends I read each message I missed Until the very end I do this every morning Unless I don't feel well I put some messages in ignore and turn off my notification bell I don't know why I do this Maybe I want people to see The girl that had always been there Hasn't been online lowkey I still check my messages To see if someone's there I let my messages buffer To find that it's all bare That day, I learned the truth The painful truth that scars my heart Even though you're always there You are never enough
