The Ocean And Its Creator by Rand Tadros
I looked at the ocean with jealousy Because of how free it seemed to be boundless Jealous, jealous of love that I could not feel Jealous of freedom I could not find Insecurity creeped in closing me up Fear took over pushing people away fear of anyone finding the true me Maybe it isnโt enough, unaccepted Acting was the hobby I took on a daily basis So good at it So good at it to the extreme of changing the way I act based on who I am with Shifting and changing my mask continuously โShift, change, actโ singing in my head over and over Over and over โShift, change, actโ How?
