Umm... Undermining My Mind Dot of the unsure Dot of the lies Dot of the worry Not sure whether to raise my hand or not. I know the answer, but... Flashing memories Of all the name calling Of all the crying Of all “I’m fine”s When really I’m not. Not sure whether to tell the truth or not. I know what I feel, but… Flashing memories Of all the screaming Of all the hiding Of all the “I feel good”s When really I don’t. Not sure whether to show the pain or not. I know where the pain is coming from, but… Flashing memories Of all the fake worried faces Of all the anxiety attacks Of all the “I’m okay”s When really I’m not. Umm… Undermining My Mind Dot of the unsure Dot of the lies Dot of the worry

Umm...
Umm... Undermining My Mind Dot of the unsure Dot of the lies Dot of the worry Not sure whether to raise my hand or not. I know the answer, but... Flashing memories Of all the name calling Of all the crying Of all “I’m fine”s When really I’m not. Not sure whether to tell the truth or not. I know what I feel, but… Flashing memories Of all the screaming Of all the hiding Of all the “I feel good”s When really I don’t. Not sure whether to show the pain or not. I know where the pain is coming from, but… Flashing memories Of all the fake worried faces Of all the anxiety attacks Of all the “I’m okay”s When really I’m not. Umm… Undermining My Mind Dot of the unsure Dot of the lies Dot of the worry
That moment of hesitation.
