Mistaken Identity

Why can't I sleep at night do you ask?....
It is not easy to mask this guilt that's in my mind
For I....am not the person you think I am
Look within me, and think again
Tell me, just what do you see?
Look deeper...
Can you even see me;
see past this wall of insecurity?
Then you pretend
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet nothings
That you think mean something to me
You tell me what I want to hear
Just to befriend me
Just to get near me
Only to walk away when you know me
Only to go blind when I start to show me
Why is that?
Though I am not righteous
My actions are just
My intentions are good
But my mistakes leave a shadow of dust
A dust that clouds not only your eyes but your perception
Misunderstood. I wait for just one person to accept me.
