forever pressure

to act a certain way
so nobody knows who you are

to look a certain way
so everybody knows who you are

to look in the mirror
and have to ask yourself
“who am I?”
because even you don’t know
the answer

to lose yourself
and see someone else
when you look in the cracked glass
that hangs in a room that isn't yours

you don’t
act
think
or look like you

so who are you?
