Shadow...

Living in a shadow of three.
trying to bring out light in someone.
what they cant see
is that she is done.

cant be me
wont be them.
Or who they want me to be,
the light they're searching for so dim.

their standards so high.
perfect person and such.
i couldn't be if i tried.
it's to much.

it's a fight.
but they don't see
i struggle day and night
to just be me.

they're dreams: old and rusted.
because they wouldn't leave mine be.
they would be disgusted
to see what has become of me...
