The me you don’t see

Is the me I will be

The me the future will bring

The me I strive for

The me you don’t see

Will not be afraid to speak her mind

Will not hold back just to be polite

Will not compromise her own health

Just to spare your feelings

The me you don’t see

Will rise from me now

Will take charge of my life

I will say what I feel and not let you stop me

I am me and her

You look at me and I stand a scared little girl

A girl who constantly tries to make peace

A girl looking to be herself

But you don’t see the other me

You don’t see the girl who wants to cry

The girl who wants to be selfish

The girl who wants to be a part of this world

Instead of just watching it

The me you don’t see will be

The me who is happy

Who can tell you how she feels and not worry about hurting your feelings

Who will be proud to walk outside instead of

Hiding from everything

You will see

The me I will be
