I have my carefree personality.

   I don't see her much anymore.

I have my fun personality.

   She went away with all my friends.

I have my energetic personality.

   I can't muster her up.

I have my sad personality.

   She's evolving into depression.

I have my stressed personality.

   She's taken ahold of my life.

I have my fear personality.

   She can create so many fears, more and more each day.

I have my anxiety personality.

   She and stressed rule over me.

I have my imaginative personality.

   She used to give me such dreams, and now she gives me nightmares.

I have my hopeful personality.

   She died a long, long, time ago.

I have my pessimistic personality.

   She's always there, whispering in my ear.

I have my school personality.

   She's that fake, outgoing, bubbly, popular girl.

I have my family personality.

   She's that fake, smiling, perfect child my parents wanted.

I have my alone-time personality.

   She's always telling me I'm not good enough.

And I know she's right.


The author's comments:

A lot of people can't be themselves, and I myself have been working to destroy my fake personalities. It isn't as easy as one might think in this day and age, with all of society's pressure. Be yourself. It's hard, I know. (And here's where we get sentimental, but I definitely mean it) Don't surround yourself with people who won't like the real you. You're setting yourself up for failure and you won't be happy. I know I'm not.
