it's an invisible weight
pressing down on all of us
we pretend not to notice
and continue our daily routines
but inside
none of us are really ok
the only difference between the sane and insane
is that one is better at hiding it

my heart rips through my chest when i see you
my stomach cartwheels when i hear your name
i forget myself when i hear your voice
i only wish you felt the same about me
writing this at midnight thinking about a certain someone ;)

You feel me but am I really here?
You talk to me But am I really listening?
You laugh with me but am I really happy?
You assume that this is me
This gossiping hair obsessed girl
H
I
D
But is this really me?            
Did I hide it from you?
Scared you would judge
And hurt me
And leave me even more broken than I was before
Would you?
If I showed
That I loved books
More than makeup
That I thought unique things
And had my own thoughts
Would you judge?
