I almost cried today tried
my hardest to hold them back, I felt my pride shatter today as I came face to
face with the facts, Honesty can be
brutal but in the truth we will find our
every need, and truth I couldn’t face I let
the world put a mask on me,
Living for the expectations
of others is like playing a no win game, you put in all the work and they get
all the fame, like a puppet on stings or better yet a dog on leash being led around by my fears and insecurities never
truly being me, it’s sad when I think about it and all I wanted to was see them
happy, I was so jaded by their smiles that I couldn’t even see what was happening
You see I thought I was
doing it out all love but they where using me like a tool, I guess the old
saying is true at times we all play the fool, I was so afraid to be myself, so
scared of what they might say honestly I was just scared of being un love,
could they learn to appreciate me once I took the mask away,
Wearing the mask was
draining and slowing killing my spirit, the expectations of the world were so
loud that GOD was calling me and I couldn’t even hear it, he made a way for me but I kept choosing my own path,
when I think about how many missed opportunities I should get mad but I just
laugh, In God I found the strength to address my insecurities, my faith to
fight my fear and to stand up for what I believe,
I’ve lost contact
with some friends and at times I am alone and it can be a scary place for me,
but then I recognize the joy in letting my true self be, we all at times where
the mask and it’s just to appease, but I encourage you take the mask off and
show yourself to world, Show them what you are truly destined to be,
