We hide behind these names

That aren't are own

Playing with the thought

That we are interesting

Worth-while people

Even though

They are just our own well-crafted lies

Lives that lack life

Identities that lack identity

Until someone calls us out

They try to connect to the person

Instead of the name on the screen

But we become scared

Of them knowing

We aren't the great person

We say we are

And then we erase the profile,

the information,

the pictures,

And make another one

Because we can't accept the fact

That we live these normal lives

So filled with normalcy

That we are disgusted

But behind this everyday routine of ours

I've come to know a certain beauty

About these moments I inhabit

I won't tell you though

You have to find it out for yourself

You can do it

I know you can
