Shadowed Personality
I walk into class, everyone just stares.
All I hear is murmurs, like I really care.
Different kinds of attitudes, an act is what I play.
All they see is this girl, with a smirk upon her face.
Guys want the hook up, while boys want to play.
What's a girl to do, What's a girl to say?
What's a girl to do when she needs to turn the page?
She's growing up so fast, that she's older than her age.
There's intensity upon this page, the secrets are so deep.
The torment she would receive keeps her from her sleep.
If I were to talk how would I survive?
How would I word the things I hold inside?
There's a secret love I hold that no one can see.
Like no one can see past this shadowed personality!
