The calmness I show on the outside
When inside I’m a nervous wreck
How can I be seen so differently
To others, this calm put together woman
who just on the inside is a frighten mess
How can I be representing myself
So differently then what I’m showing on the outside
Is it my friendliness or thoughtful soul
That gives the vibe of wanting to make everyone feel safe around me
or, deep inside I’m the one who’s afraid and needs to be saved from myself
I really don’t know
Or, is it my up bringing of having to be perfect all the time
Not wanting to let anyone down but really I have
Myself
I can’t be who I really truly am
A free spirit who needs to be free

I’ve always had a interest in poetry since I took a creative writing class in high school. Writing poetry is my safe place where I can either get positive or sometimes negative energy out by my writing of poetry.
