The Act

Summary:

Wrote this for a school assignment, thought it would be worth sharing.Forgive the clunkiness, I'm not a poet.

Work Text:

I’ve spent so long faking things that
Even I don’t know what makes the real me
It’s the false way everyone else sees me
This elaborate, stupid, selfish act

Am I a lie, or even just a mask?
I’m not sure this even is the real me.
Reality, I simply want to see,
I have so many questions I must ask.

I’ve made it this far with this twisted lie
But I don’t know how long I can go on
I want to be truthful, so I may fly
But I’m on the ground, singing just one song

I now know what and who I really am
Maybe soon I can shed this wicked scam
