They Don'T See the Real Me
Others see me for my cover
Not caring how I am on the inside
To them, I look like this perfect girl
That can do no wrong
But what they don't realize
that when I'm at home
Beyond the school walls
My life is not perfect
I may say I'm fine
But what I really mean is
I need help
Can anyone help me, Please!
But no one can hear my cries
I'm alone in the darkness
I have thoughts,
terrible to even think of
No one can see
Under my perfect skin
That I am pleading
For anyone to help me ...
“Your so pretty,” they all said
“Why did she do it?”
“She had so much to live for!”
But they were too late....
They were too late to hear the cries
Too late to let her know that
She could have been happy...
That she was not alone
