This is Me

Deep, dark, depressed,
Calm, happy, spontaneous,
Me, myself, I.

Fear of light, rejection, being left out,
I am strong, self-reliant, independent,
But lonely.

I cry, get angry, and laugh,
I pity, feel for others, and try,
But still am lonely.

Great friends, great home, great life,
I get many gifts throughout time,
But there's something missing.

Something I can't figure out alone,
Something I need help with,
But no one's there.

I look in the mirror,
I see that face, that mask, that painted on smile,
And it hurts.

There's one thing I want in life,
But I can't find it.

Maybe one day I'll find it,
Maybe I won't.

Maybe that's my fate,
My destiny,
My life.
