Icon Who are You?

Post by SurayyaHassan1606 »

Who are you?
Beneath the labels, the conditioning, the chemicals, the comparisons,
the hopelessness, learned helplessness, the self-pity and resentment.

Who are you?
When you're juggling those balls, wearing those hats,
Riding your high horse, falling into the perfect perfectionism trap.

Who are you?
When you're not people-pleasing,
Hiding, faking, controlling,
Trembling, shaming, judging,
Scrolling, trolling.

When the mask begins to slip,
Who are you?
