Confessions of a Guilt Ridden Designer Label Drama Queen

Recovered from a severe plunge down a remarkably deep well
Battered, bruised and fictitiously stronger than ever
Survived a personal nightmare of coming to outer rims of danger
Only to appear stronger than ever your average Avenger
Don't tell Captain America or Black Panther though
They might get jealous of your newfound survivor's empowerment
Climbing up an endlessly steep Mount Kilimanjaro
Only for it to turn into rapidly disintegrating rubble
Before it became nothing but a pile of Tidy Cats kitty litter
Chased off by an army of calico cats making some natural deposits
Grossed out by the sights and smells coming out of this mound
Once unattainable and now nothing but a cat's paradise
Where they become a live action Garfield of humorous sorts
Debated how it was possible to end up in such a precarious spot
Not entirely sure that the recovery from the fall was as swift
As it first appeared to be on the surface to the world at large
Possibly just a façade to make up for disappointing and betraying them
Broke a few hearts and caused some sleepless nights for those closest
Wondered if their trust could ever be earned back or lost forever
Worked impossibly hard to be the best employee in the universe
Earned a well-deserved promotion to only find new pressures
Being in a higher ranking stature with mounting responsibilities
Was it a mistake to strive to such heights that it's hard to live up to?
Falling apart at the seams of numerous daily routine tasks to tackle
Unable to be Superman and Wonder Woman at the same time
Not faster than a locomotive; especially when the cops catch up to you
Too clumsy to carry the golden lasso of truth and run at the same time
Femininity not a strong suit at this juncture of the week
Trying to bottle any potential emotional liability in the Cover Girl finish
Terrified to express what feelings are bubbling up underneath
Afraid to expose the fragile confidence and meek personality
Rather throw out sarcastic comments and goofy faces instead
A few slaps on your boyfriend's gluteus maximus and a playful kiss
To shake things up when things get too serious or awkward
Showing strength and minimal weakness for to avoid appearing too pathetic
Fed up with keeping up this phony display of control
Ready to toss the Cover Girl and the synthetic grin out the window
Done trying to always swallowing the pride and the hurt
Need to convey what's in this emotion filled caldron
Instead of letting it boil over once again at an alarming rate
Avoiding turning love into hate; and into Investigation Discovery fodder
Let the truth come to light whether everyone wants to hear it or not
True test will be to see who left standing when dust settles
Only time will tell if that's really the case.
