I live in the world where people can see your flaws
Your scars are colored and so are your tears
Your tears stain your face, showing everyone how sad or happy you really are
Letting other people see the real you is scary
They could like who you are or they don't like who you are
They could leave you or spend time with you because they like who you are
Opening up isn't worth it when everyone can see our scars and tears
Everyone thinks:
*What do they think of me?*
*Will they want to be friends with me?*
*Will they leave me?*
The truth is, no one knows
People judge us all the time,
So you hope you found a good person to be friends with
If you find that here; you shouldn't let that go
No matter what
Good people in this world are hard to come by
Hold them close and don't let them go
Our colored tears are scary; we are used to it but it doesn't make it any less scary
People see our scars and that's even more scary
In this world, the only way you get a scar is by self harming
If you fall,
A scar doesn't form but if you self harm, you get a scar
That's even more scary
People will judge you by how happy you are even more if you have scars or a lot of scars
We want to be happy here
We want to build people up instead of tearing them down
But for some reason we tear people down
Tearing people down is all we know in this world
We don't know how to be nice
One step at a time to practice being nice
We live in a world where people can see your scars and tears
But, we still try to love ourselves and each other
Having people see your scars and tears could be a good thing too
If they see the emotional you, they would want to be better friends with you
Then you would have real friends and not fake friends
People are so vulnerable when you see the real them.
I live in a world where you have
Colored.
Tears.
