And in every scene we act out

I am always playing the woman stuck between

loving you forever

and leaving you

before I am profoundly destroyed

I am stuck playing the woman I am

and the woman I want to be

I am caught between

accepting the love I know is there

and feeling like I don't deserve it

I am trapped between trying

and giving up
I fear I am 19 and already a failure
