Trade yourself to belong?

When I wake up in the morning
And look in the mirror
I see everything that makes
Me into me disappear
And someone I don't know
Take my place.

Someone who say things
I would never say and do things
I'd never dare

But no one else ever notice
to them the stranger is me
When she smile they think I do
And when she voice her thoughts
They take them as mine

And I let her do this every day
Because now she is me in
Everyone's eyes

If I suddenly became me again
I would be a stranger in everyone's eyes
To them she is me now

Yet I do not hate her
And neither do I love her
I just learn to live with it
Cause I don't know how else to manage

Only in the silence of my room
The true me surface and the
Stranger disappears

But for every passing day she stays longer
And I'm scared because soon
There will be no me left…just her

And what frightens me more
Is that I long for that to happen
It's her everyone knows and love
not me…

Is that really so wrong?
To trade yourself just to belong
I wrote this in the middle of the night when I feelt a little bit down. Its the second poem I've ever writen so I don't know how good it is=P
