Day by day I can feel myself fading away drifting further and further away from who I used to be. slowly becoming a copy I’m no longer myself I live in the shadows of the people who surround me always there but never seen the life I live isn't mine the only time I'm myself is when I'm alone. When I was younger I was told to never cry and not to let people see who you really are, to guard your heart and I tried and I lost myself while doing that but it also taught me that It's okay to cry and break down, it's okay to let someone take care of you, it's okay not to be okay. It's okay to be weak sometimes and it's okay to let down your guard....

This is a beautiful poem and i think what i like about it most is that it is so true and honest and coming from a background like that it must have been hard to reach where you are now. So i am proud of you and i hope one day i also realize that it is okay for me to be me.
