15, tall, confident, female,
Those are the words one uses to describe me,
People think they know me when  they don’t,
My English teacher called me confident as a compliment,
But that couldn’t be further from the truth,
I am insecure and those insecurities have gotten the beat of me,
But I don’t let them drag me down,
I walk like I run the place because I know I can and one day I will actually run the place,
You call me a cheerful joyous person,
I’m a depressed person,
I smile because I know it can improve someone’s day,
I smile because I know the struggle and I know just seeing a smile form on someone’s face when you arrive,
Makes you feel loved and worthy,
And I want you to know that you are,
And I tell myself that I am too,
It is known that Man’s enemy is man himself,
But I want you too know that you don’t have to be the enemy,
You can be the support, the friend,
As man’s true friend is himself,
As Albus Dumbeldore said,
The happiest man in earth will look into the mirror and see himself exactly as he is.
