Description
Locked up thoughts stay behind my mouthRetaining the image others have of me
Who am I? Am I nice, am I mean...stupid?
It depends on who YOU are
My Actions are influenced by your presence
Altering from person to person
If I don't agree with what you have to say
You would never know
Fickle thoughts bouncing back and forth inside my mind
Unable to decide
By trying to please everyone I lose my identity
The one I never had
Constantly molding myself to meet others interests in order to be liked
I don't want to hurt anyone
But in the end ...I'm hurting me

This is really well done, Lydia!
From knowing you for about 5 years now, I'd say this sums up everything you've ever told me into 15 lines. Wonderful job!

There's a truth and a half. Everyone is a compilation of slightly stunted personalities used in a variety of pre-designated roles determined by a first impression. It's really hard to break out of them, and it's hard to say why we get into them in the first place. It probably makes life a lot harder when you realize someone you hate is actually a multi-faceted human being like you are when you're by yourself.
You should consider doing a full prose piece on this, maybe.

oh wow...Thanks so much! I'm flattered.
Like I said in my artist's comments, I'm not much of a poetry writer. If I have the time (or get really bored one day) I might pick it back up.
