When I used to feel great, I stood tall.
I felt like a shining star in the dark.
Now, I feel small and dim.
People see me, but they don't really understand.
The crown I wore felt perfect before.
Now, it feels too tight. I used to soar high,
but now I crawl.
The pressure of expectations feels heavy.
I know I’m not the best, and that’s alright.
But it still hurts when I feel this way.
I fear what others think of me.
That critical voice in my head never goes away.
When being average feels like failing,
I wonder if I can get back up.
The road ahead seems long and dark.
In this quiet, I feel out of place.
But I remind myself that I’m human,
just like you. Sometimes I feel lost,
but I continue to grow.
One day, I hope to see that being myself is enough for me to feel free.
