Lost myself by ~deminex:icondeminex:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Human Nature > Open


I have  often hid myself.
Behind secrets and lies.
The things I say in day to day.
Are another damn disguise.
My projected personalities.
Have become more real than me.
I'm losing everything inside.
The things that you don't see.
I left exactly who I am.
Lying on the road behind.
It may not be to obvious.
But I didn't really mind.

My lies and smiles are now so real.
I don't fake them anymore.
They happen automatically.
So many times before
I do accept what I've become.
Throughout each and every day.
But sometimes I can't help but feel.
I lost me along the way.

Very nice poem. I do understand. I think everybody does that, putting on an ephemeral personality with everybody. That's just life I guess. Its change and adapting to new situations, and shouldnt be looked on as a bad thing.

If it'd been me stealing the sun, I wouldn't give it to humans to keep them warm. I'd drown it in the ocean and start buying their souls by selling them fire.

Ok, something tells me you didn't understand the point of this.

It's not about changing my identity, it's about losing it altogether.

My mistake. I can understand. Unfortunately, the only way to get over it is to stop lying, something very hard but very rewarding. I would know, for one hour, I dropped all veneers and showed myself to someone without lying. Fucking hard but worth it. Tell me if it helps.
