They look at me
They see
Teacher’s pet,Confidence
Stability, Leader
Friend
The way that no comment bothers me
Netballer,Dancer
Bookworm
The strength..
That’s who I am, Isn’t it?
People don’t look at me and see
Former addiction
Anger,Frustration
What they don’t know won’t hurt them right?
True, maybe
But it will hurt me
