Heads Or Tails
A bright smile,
A dark heart.
An open book,
Full of dark secrets.
Happy on the outside,
Hollow under the skin.
Busy days,
Lonely nights.
It's good, Its great.
It never ends, its a tragic cycle.
Nobody notices,
I think they know.
Strong,
Falling apart.
I help others.
I need to be saved.
Is there something beneath, they wonder.
She worries, hoping things will stay hidden.
It all comes out in the open.
Will things get worse?
"You're stupid, you're pathetic"
"Why do I deserve this?"
Get over yourself, its for attention.
She can't take it anymore.
Stop pretending, everything's fine.
Giving up, can't handle life anymore.
She's really gone.
I'm gone.
