Me vs myself

What is this

you know what this is

it scares me

it's real

I don't like this

don't deny it

I don't know what to do about it

it's not the end of the world

it's the end of the world

you'll be fine

this isn't okay

get over it

how?

It's there

and I don't know how to get rid of it

fake it 'til you make it

do I really have to?

It doesn't make me feel any better

I don't even know if I didn't make this up

you most likely didn't

but I can't change my personality so late

maybe faking it is a good idea

I told you so

shut up.

    Revival

    It's a band piece

    weird, I know

    it's from last year

    and we only played it in concert once

    but it means a lot to me

    it reminds me of a lot.

    Me

    How

    do others see me?

    Do they see a girl in gray cargo pants and light blue thermal quarter zip?

    Do they see a friend who loves them despite her crankiness?

    Do they see a quiet awkward girl who prefers books to people?
