There Once Was a Girl

There once was a girl Who hated the world And everyone around her. She would always replace The smile on her face With a frown that showed all her pain. She would struggle to find The meaning behind The pain she hid deep inside her. The reasons why She would always hide And push everyone away. Why people would treat her bad And wounder if she had To believe the harsh Words that were spoken. To give in to the pressure Becoming unsure Of her importance in the world. She began to question everything around her Wondering if it would ever get better Or if people would change. But she held her head up high And said goodbye To the harsh people that would treat her badly. She began to see the world with new eyes And saw nothing but clear blue skies Her world was changing for the better. She no longer believes the harsh words spoken about her And no longer gives into the pressure She always has a big bright smile on her face That can never be replaced.
