Who am I? What do you want me to be? Others That’s all that I am made up of. Who am I? Inside I’m shy Inside I’m different Inside, I’m caring. Inside, I’m nothing I want to be. 5 years of false happiness 15 of displeasure What will the next 10 be? What must I make of myself? What will I be? Who am I? What do you want me to be? Inside I feel walked on, By anything and everything Only betrayed by the best. The best… Everyone other than myself 5 years of false happiness 15 of displeasure What will the next 10 be? What must I make of myself? What will I be? Who am I? What do you want me to be? Inside I feel I’m trapped in a box Just screaming to be let out The walls closing in It gets tougher to express who I am 5 years of false happiness 15 of displeasure What will the next 10 be? What must I make of myself? What will I be? Who am I? What do you want me to be? Self-confident on my own time Self-conscious on others A typical teen that’s lost who she is Who has lost her own identity. 5 years of false happiness 15 of displeasure What will the next 10 be? What must I make of myself? What will I be? Who am I? What do you want me to be? What do I want to be? What do I want to be? Who do you want me to be? The two questions I ask myself The two questions I ask you, with no words. 5 years of false happiness 15 of displeasure What will the next 10 be? What must I make of myself? What will I be? Who am I? What do you want me to be? You don’t know me as I am. You know me as another tag-along you. I don’t fit in your category. I don’t fit in my category. 5 years of false happiness 15 of displeasure What will the next 10 be? What must I make of myself? Who will I be? Who am I? What do you want me to be? I’m taken over by others’ souls They corrupt me like an evil sin I have done. I can’t let go of corruption. I can’t, in fear of your rejection. 5 years of false happiness 15 of displeasure What will the next 10 be? What must I make of myself? Who will I be? Who am I? What do you want me to be? Time rolls on, Yet, I still ask the same questions Who am I? What do you want me to be? Who am I? Who do I want to be? |

Welcome to Passions Sheila! Wow! An incredibe first post so full of questions! I think the best question Sheila, is who or what do "you" want to be? Listen to your heart, and worry not what others perceive. Be unique, and stay strong  Keep writing ... the answers will come in time (check your e-mail for a special message) Best wishes, /Kit |

Welocome to Passions..this is a great poem, you sound just like me, everyone's made up of others..and finding your identity, is something I'm on the way to do...soon you will too don't worry "Controlling my feelings for too long.... And forcing our darkest souls to unfold... And pushing us into self-destruction...." *~Muse*~ |
