Close the curtains
Turn off the lights
Take off the make up
Hang up the costume
I’m done
Done being the girl you want
I’m done pretending
I don’t want to be an actress
This is me.
I’m imperfect
My skin isn’t flawless
And my body doesn’t look like hers.
I change everyday
Some days I can’t get out of bed
And others I feel like I can touch the sky
Sometimes I don’t know who I am.
Am I the girl who shows her colours with pride?
Or the girl who hides her scars?
Maybe I’m the girl who hides behind a book
But I’ll ever be the girl who hides behind a man.
I will find myself some day
I’ll show the colours that suit me
I’ll show the world my pain
I will be me.
But for now, I’m done
No more shame
No more fear
No more acting
I just want my liberty
I want to kiss her without fear
To wear my clothes without harassments
To be free.
