Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It is the transition that is troublesome.

Some people think I am a strong person.
Some people think I don’t let people get in my head.
Some people think I can stand up to anyone.

But those people are wrong.
I am not a strong person, I am weak.
I do let people get into my head because I can’t help it.
I can’t stand up to just about anyone.
I am just a normal 14 year old girl who has her insecurities.
I have my problems of which I sometimes don’t know how to handle.

Only my close friends know what I am really like.
Only those few people know what I have been through, but it is also though few who actually care.
