You got me finally
Got me down upon my knees,
Beaten and I am so weak
Through the pressure
Of trying to be,
The best of everything
Sacrificing the authentic me,
And now I just want to be free
To live without the burden
Of trying to be complete,
Because I know I am flawed
And that’s a relief,
Of no longer wearing a mask
Life should have to be this hard,
I am everything I need to be
Why is it nobody else can see,
This is the real and genuine me.
there is so much abt johnny depp and amber heard on the news and this poem is justifying their case so well, its like almost every line is abt them. loved it
Wonderful post. I wish I knew who the genuine me is. So buried under the layers of masks.
The time has come at last
(secret secret I’ve got a secret)
To throw away this mask
(secret secret I’ve got a secret)
Now everyone can see
(secret secret I’ve got a secret)
My true identity…”
