imposter

i feel less than what i am

making a fool of myself as i

pretend to be wise or strong or capable

only i know that it is all a front, a facade, a

sham that haunts me late at night

the ways that i feel incapable are numerous

even though i know it's a lie 

real fear hides inside of it.

This is where I normally say that I'm ok. Just having a hard time. But I am having a hard time, and I'm not ok... and that is ok, too.
