who is this
that I am
it is not me
speaking this way
walking this walk
living this life
loving this man
I’m not who you
think I am
I’m me
not this person
that you see
who is that
it isn’t me
brushing my hair
dressing my body
I am not there
you are not talking
to me
who is it?
oh my God…
.
it’s me

Leave me alone
let me be
let me shift back into
invisibility
don’t eyeball me
with your closed eyes
and your stained heart
leave me be
I’m not here to please you
if you don’t like me then walk away
i never asked for your friendship
and I don’t want it anyway
not if you constantly
look at me
and roll your eyes
and tsk your tongue
you’re not any better than me
you never were
and you never will be
just leave me alone
don’t come round here no more
just let me be
I’d rather be alone
then looked at as if i am crazy
i’m not
i’m just me
and if you don’t like that
then just turn around
and walk away
you’re not welcome here
anyway

that which…
that which is empty and
clean and dry
.
that which…
that which is aching
inside of me
that which
.
I tried to see that which
lies within
but it’s too expensive to
see
.
that which…
that which is hidden
inside of me
remains hidden
forever
.
that which…
that which I hold so
dear is lost
.
that which…
that which forever
tears me apart inside
remains hidden
that which
.

this person
in the mirror
it is not me
I am not she
i am not her
I can’t be
i don’t feel
grown up
i’m just a
child
playing make
believe
it’s not me
in there
I’m not that
girl
with tiny eyes
and plain brown
hair
those wrinkles
they aren’t
mine
they can’t be
because I am
not her
and she
is not
me
