Hidden

She puts on a smile for all to see,

She hides the truth all too well,

She hides herself, waiting to break free,

To break the walls of her shell..

No one knows the way she feels,

For her voice is all too weak,

What's inside she may never reveal,

For what she feels, she may never speak..

She acts all tough,

But inside she is falling apart,

As her life is all too rough,

For the most damage takes place in her heart..

All too many times she has been hurt,

Now none shall gain her trust,

She is now the outcast.. the introvert,

Everything she cares about is crumbling to dust..

She is not the little girl she once was,

She learned that everything isn't as it seems,

It wasn't possible to just hit pause,Everything is falling apart at the seams..
