She wakes up at dawn with a frown on her face
For a moment, all she feels is disgracedĀ
She cannot remember who she is or was
But knows it is time for a changeĀ
She wants to be someone else, like herself, but new
If only her friends and parents knew,Ā
The pain and sorrow she feels when she wakes at dawn
The problem is not within herself, but with the world outside
All the pressure she has and tries to hide
She is too skinny to be pretty but too dumb to be smart
She tries her best to just impress
Being 18 years old and in college, everyone questions her future or her looks
But still she stands with her head up high
She wants to be perfect,
When soon she realizes, no one is perfect
We are all just teenagers who put on a faceĀ
Wishing to be āthat personā they chase
We are all just teenagers who want to impressĀ
When really,
All we can do is just try our best.
