This world might be a part of me
But not all of me.
When I am trying my best to be
Who I am, To be complete.
The world keeps  crushing, telling me
who I am supposed to be.

Up outside
I might seem so strong
But don't judge me
Could never be so wrong.

Cause in too deep
I've fell asleep
I'm dead inside
Running out of my own sight.

Now when I look into the mirror
I can't identify the girl
Maybe my vision has started to blur
Clouded, covered and killed by fear.

Why do I feel so hollow
And have their rules
That I need to follow
Stuck between my dreams and heart
My dreams, they say should be lost.

But every night after I go to sleep
My beautiful wishes,as visions I see.
How much I yearn for them to be real
But I think I forgot how
Feeling good feels.

Then they tell me how to be
My dreams, they say were never meant to be seen
But no one ever asks me
' how have you been?'

- Nandhika Vardhini
