&quot;we all carry these things inside that no one else can see. they hold us down like anchors and they drown us out at sea.&quot;<br /> &quot;i&#039;m trying to figure out which parts of my personality are mine and which ones I created to please you&quot;

They all tell me I'm
wonderful,
talented
gorgeous or
funny.
And for a while,
I believe them.
But then I go home.
And sit in my room
Alone
And it all
Comes
Crashing
