I am not what I imagine myself to be

The Earth rotates surely from West to east
And I am plagued by imaginings unknown to me;
I raise my voice in order to be heard, but alas! 
I cause the sudden flight of a black bird. 
I am not what I imagine myself to be. 
Then, who am I? A princess? A pauper? 
Fear of failure for what I'm not numbs me
And I am not what I imagine myself to be. 
As surely as the sun rises each day
I vow to succeed and have a victorious day, 
To fill it with not blank walls but currency for the soul 
And then I imagine I can creep out of the hole.
