Curse to be Complex

it can be a curse to be complex

to have to try and decipher ones own mind

the answer is never simple

and the question, maybe it was not phrased right

to feel emotions as if a volcano had erupted

to try and stay ahead of the lava

to fear getting engulfed by your own melodrama

people generally see half of the picture

as if my life is an iceberg

the darkness hiding beneath the surface

you are this, you are that they say

and I always wonder

what is it they see

what picture of me do I present to the world?

because I am still trying to figure it out myself
