Labels
2021-08-18

In a society build on labels, I'm drowning
Had several labels on me, it's astounding
If it were visible, I'd be covered in post-it's
Those I got to ditch, I won't even miss
I'm so many things, that no one else sees
Got a mind overflooded with disbelieves
Tried damn hard to live up to my labels
They were stuck to my skin like staples
How others saw me written as a noun
And I didn't want to let anyone down
Took on the description of a happy girl
Who were strong enough to fight world
When really, I felt weak and a as fraud
I was depressed, worthless, and flawed
But I held my act to calm surroundings
While I kept climbing anxiety mountains
