Peer Pressure
November 17, 2009
The pressure to be perfect
Is unbearable and hard
The pressure to be
Someone I'm not
A phony,
A fake
When all I want
Is to find myself
My own self is lost,
Lost in all the pressure
I'm trying so hard to find myself,
And I think I do
Until I return to school
And I realize it's all the same
With everyone trying to tell me
Who I'm supposed to be
