This Is Me
  i’ve gotten yelled at,
  i’ve been lied to,
  i watched someone die,
  my cat,
  my friend,
  my granny,
  just because a death is over does not mean closure can be found,
  i struggle with anxiety,
  because of my anxiety it has become my whole world,
  panic disorder, social, and post traumatic the doctors decided,
  i was in full distraught half my life
  i have lost many friends because of this,
  my life lost all of its bliss,
  so it seemed,
  to a starving teen,
  when i was 13,
  i was 20 pounds underweight,
  i look normal and healthy now,
  but just a few years back,
  all i had to eat was carrot sticks and celery,
  insecure and not alright,
  middle school i watched the cool kids rule,
  i sat alone at lunch,
  getting smirks from the popular bunch,
  i suffer from OCD,
  everything has to be perfect or i feel sick to the knees,
  so many have left me,
  i just want to cry,
  but at the end of my sobbing and writing,
  i realize i can survive and fight my inside torture,
  with the help and support from no one other than me,
  forcing myself to believe.

This poem is about my life and what I have gone through. I finally feel content and happy with myself. I hope you enjoy this poem. It was very hard for me to write but I accept myself for who I am, and this is the real me, so you guys should know the real me as well.
