Poem
If people really knew the girl Not the one they see Would they all still feel the same Hope that’s what they’d be Would people all still envy her They try to find a flaw She wishes they all knew the truth To her there’s so much more If you’re watching from the side She seems to have it all Her whole world’s there in front of her There’s no way she could fall But every night she goes to bed She prays to stop the pain For whilst she’s aching in the storm They’re dancing in the rain When she wakes she starts to cry She cannot face the day Her eyes are red they’re still so sore The hurt won’t go away They say that she could light a room Her beauty captures you She hides it well puts on a face She knows they can’t see through She’s caught up in the battlefield But how long can she fight The end was once so close to her Now it’s not in sight Long ago when things got rough She took the deadly road It seemed to be the easy choice No sorrow ever showed Even though she’s gone so far She hopes it’s not too late To turn and go the other way Time won’t stop and wait She hates to spend her days this way Why won’t they realise Her lifeless soul just standing there The sadness in her eyes She knows that she should reach for help Not keep it in her head But all the words she’s never spoke Will still remain unsaid.
