Inspired by Sza’s new album deluxe “Lana”, “No More Hiding”
(Give it a listen while reading this poem)

No more hiding
What I choose not to leave in plane sight
I’m so good at hiding I’m missing this beautiful sunlight
Don’t tell me the truth cause it would hurt me 2 much
So I’d rather run away
I wanna do it all over again
Again
And again
Seems I never want to stay in the same place twice
Not a lover insight
Temporary friendships I keep letting them come and go on a whim
I’m so burned out
No more burning bright star light
No more hiding
Seems I gotta make myself stay in the same place for once
I wanna be real me, ulgy
Mask off cause I’m tired of all this fake external bullshit
No more fake me, fighting
It seems it’s all bullshit and I keep fucking up
Looking like a dumb lil slut
In need of some temporary fake love
Hurt myself to gain acceptance to form a better outward perception of who they think I am
Changed myself a 1000” times to make amends,
I’m looking for real connections
I keep trying to...
