Scared

I am scared.

Really, Utterly scared. 

I am scared of myself.

Of the person that I am becoming.

Of the others around me.

I don't know what to do.

I have become someone that the old me wouldn't recognise. I have become so fake.

Tangled up in lies that I can't breathe.

Lying is so easy now that it slips through my tongue like the truth.

Maybe I don't even know anymore.

About what is true and what is not.

I lie to everyone. 

I forget what I really am and show them who they want to see.

I am different to everyone.

But no one knows the true me.

The scared girl.

The one whose demons don't allow her to be true.

True to herself.
