Pacing.
Back and forth
Back and forth
Looking at your accomplishments

Noticing first
The ones that everyone knows about,
That are public records,
And the ones that you brag about,
Constantly

Then realizing,
That what everyone sees
Isn't who you are

That what you do at home
Is the real accomplishment
Because of
All the things you do
That you aren't responsible for
But do anyway

How you control yourself
In public
And
How your hide your feelings
So nobody feels bad for you

Those are who you truly are
Who you are not just because you hope
That some one
Anyone will find you
In a good act

But because no one is looking and you
Want to be you
