Unseen Pain

Once upon a time, I knew a happy little girl She had gorgeous sea blues eyes, which looked better then pearls She was a happy young girl, her life was so very perfect On my very down days, I picture her and reflect As her life was great for a five-year-old, nothing could go wrong Her life was like a beautiful unwritten love song She would dance, sing, laugh and play Who would have thought all of this could be taken away? This little girl has grown up now, I wonder where can she be? But the harsh reality is, she is deep within me She has forgotten who she was, and sadly who she is For that five-year-old girl she truly does miss Where is that smile? The laughter? That cheeky little grin? It has to be somewhere, it must still be deep within So I’ll fight for my friend to submerge again But for now my tears will continue to fall, as unseen pain.
