Don’t lie to me. I hear you all the
time, is it not late enough? Can I sleep now or will you continue to haunt my
thoughts, telling me that I can’t do it. Telling me that I can’t be the one. I
hear your voice in my head telling me that I’m nobody. That I’ll never change
and I’ll never be the person I aim to be.
Don’t lie to me. Saying all those
things, I know exactly who I am, and I know exactly who I will be. You can’t
stop me, not you or your actions or these pathetic words you try and throw at
me. They don’t bring me down, they won’t. They hurt, oh they hurt a lot.
Especially coming from you. You of all people.
Don’t lie to me. I have enough
people against me as it is. You think you’re the only one saying these things?
There’s nothing you can say that I haven’t heard from someone else. There’s
nothing left for you to say because I hear it so many times. I’ve heard it
before and I’ve made myself strong against it.
Don’t lie to me. I’m not weak, do
you see where I am? Do you see me walking the path that I chose to take? Just
because you try and kick me off the road, send me on detours, push me in
potholes. I’m still going. Don’t you see that?
Don’t… Lie to me… Why do you have
to do this to me? Is what I want wrong? Is it wrong for me to chase after my
dreams? Why are you so against me…? I get it, other people can be weak and they
want you to be weak with them. They can’t stand to see someone else rising
above them… Yet you… You of all people…
Don’t lie to me. I will rise above,
I will be somebody, and I will walk this road. I will be everything that I
dream to be, and I will be it without you. I don’t need the negative in my
life, I’m not going down, I’m only going up. There isn’t a thing in this world
that you can do to stop me. I will be.
Don’t you dare lie to me… That’s
what I tell the face in the mirror.
