Undefined


One time, I was nothing
Or at least I thought I was
I had nothing inside of me
No substance or truth

One day I decided I wanted to be tough
No more crying in the bathroom, no more tears welling in my eyes
I became just like them, and even worse
I fed on their fears, they became my prey

Soon later, I realized I had changed so much
My dreams and hopes, vanished like smoke
I just wanted to be me, yet it seemed so hard to reach
But first of all, I needed to discover who me was


I tried many options, none worked out
I just ended up getting rejected and hurt every single time
I tried to please, I tried to be everything
They all just shut me out and I was back to square one

Over the years, I've learnt not to expect anything
If I don't want to get hurt
I do what I want, what makes me happy
I still haven't found completely who me is
But I'll keep trying, no matter how hard it seems.
