It hit me so hard.
Everyone sees me as a happy face. Always nice and smart.
I know that no one cares. That no one will realize that all of this is true. That I hate myself and can't stand the thought of living another day. That I rather die than face East Carteret tomorrow.
I know that you shouldn't compare yourself to your friends but I do. It is just instinct. I never will meet up to them. It would be so nice to just be yourself and not care what else is going on. That is my dream. My goal.
I can't bare to look in the mirror and see that failure looking back at me. That I will never be in the Top Twenty or get a subject award or live up to everyone else's achievements. I can't face that. I know it happens. I try to face it but I can't. And when I start to realize it, it hits me hard. Like I am drowning and I won't be able to come back. The tears hit me like nothing else.
I relaize that it takes confidence to not compare yourself to your friends. To these brilliant people around you. I strive for confidence. To look pretty one day. To have a person look at me and see that I have a sad story and even if I am not beautiful, I want to be noticed.
No one will love me for this.
No one will believe this or care.
It is the truth.
The truth that makes me want to die.
