    Will The Real Me Please Stand Up

    cold, dark days ahead
    all these thoughts run through my head
    why do they never stop
    why is sleep a task i mock
    this brain of mine never shuts off
    its endless worries and fears keep me lost

    i write and write, but it's never enough
    the words keep coming, they are soft
    loud and screaming from deep inside
    just pleading to come out and rest for awhile
    i fight the voices, the confusion that grumbles
    but the burden is heavy, and i trip and stumble

    this must be part of healing,
    and my words and thoughts may not make sense
    but a force from within tells me to no longer ride the fence
    the fence between fake and real
    to be myself
    this is me, ugly as hell
    my thoughts are deep, my passions intense
    my love is forever, my disorder is immense

    that's the truth about me, as far as i know
    i'm not sure who else i am, this person noone really knows
    i hope to find her (me) someday
    and embrace her and love her and tell her she'll be ok
    that's my goal, that's whats screaming inside
    these angy voices, they want to all fly

    will the real me please stand up
    we'd like to all meet you and show you you're loved

    glad you could relate! Thank you for your comment!

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
