The Me you never knew

By Daiah   

I put my best foot forward
Not wanting you to see me trip at any moment.

I smiled all the time
Afraid that my crying face would weird you out.

I thought you could only accept this version of me that I made.

Because all of me is not anything great.

I have doubts
I forget
I feel hideous on most days.

That is why I pretend
To be this version of me that you would accept.

I don't know if the Love you claim to have for me will break if this mask I have had to fade.
