Sappy Poem 7
The rain clashes against the ground in a daze.
She has this tired look in her eyes.
She’s troubled, terrified for what happens next.
You tell her to trust you,
but she can’t.
You know she can’t.
She’s confused, lost in her thoughts
dreaming about the day she’ll be found.
Look past the smile, and into her eyes.
Can you see it?
Is it there?
There’s all of her despair.
There’s an actress inside every girl,
look a little closer, you’ll see her there.
She smiles, but it’s fake.
Can you tell that it’s fake?
She wants you to notice,
she wants you to care.
Thunder crashes violently in the sky,
she gives you one last look with a tear in her eye.
Now do you see it?
Now is it there?
She walks away,
but you’ll never care.
She’s screaming,
but you’ll never notice.
