Ali 

I don't get nervous.

I get scared

And when I get scared , I hide

Into myself

I hide so no one sees 

just how vunerable I really am.

And I pretend to be someone else

Someone who I've grown to hate

Someone who pushes away everyone else

But, I can't show them who I really am

I'm scared

I'm scared of them rejecting the real me

Scared of being...vunerable

And even when I've wanted to

To show people I'm not what they think

I can't.
