I don’t have any reason <br />But at least I have a rhyme <br />I’m losing all control but <br />You’ll be better off in time <br />Some say I’m a nice girl <br />Some say I’m kinda sweet <br />They will never know that <br />I’m screaming in my sleep <br />Sometimes I’m all right <br />And sometimes I’m fucked up <br />And no matter what I tell you <br />You don’t know “what’s up” <br />I can fool anyone <br />I can fool you <br />You can see right through me <br />But the skeleton’s not true <br />I am made of bullshit <br />Everything I am is lies <br />And still you cannot see it <br />The truth behind my eyes <br />To keep you feeling safe <br />I keep up this façade <br />I smile and I joke now <br />When all I do is fade <br />You think I’m thriving <br />I know I’m dying <br />And if it weren’t for this poem <br />You wouldn’t know I’m lying <br />But now I’m losing my grip <br />Afraid you might see me <br />I never let myself break down <br />I always stay all seemly <br />Inside I’m weeping <br />I’m lying to you with every smile <br />It’s all an act- I’m fake <br />You might think it’s cruel but <br />I do it for your sake <br />I’ll always have my rhymes <br />But I won’t tell you my reasons <br />And as I bullshit all of you <br />My heart does not change seasons<br /><br />Candy Simpson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/normal-girl-3/
