That girl.

I laugh, she sobs.

I talk, She's silent.

I'm confident, she's not.

I'm outgoing, She hides.

These girls are special. Would it surprise you if I said their the same girl?

We've seen it in the movies, but how about in real life? Maybe you're friends with her or maybe you are her.

A double life.

One person sees you one way, another sees you another way. One thinks your hilarious and just this happy person. Then one pitties you, sees your pain sees you're not ok.

Two lives.

It's hard for her to balance them.

She's at the top of the peek right now.

She feels like she's going to fall without anyone there to catch her. She had someone, but she lost them.

They got lost looking for her. They gave up on her.

Her eyes burn, heart feels numb. She feels as if she could be hurt again but won't feel it this time.

She feels as if someones holding her head underwater. She's drowning right now and no one knows it. She can't breathe.

She screams underwater "HELP!", but it just comes out as a mumble from the top. They can't hear her no matter how loud she yells. It always comes out as nothing.

She has nothing now.

She lost herself again.

This Girl

This girl fell.

There was a big bang that got everyone's attention.

Pity is all she sees from anyone now.

Stress is written all over her mother's face.

Scary is what her father becomes when he takes a swing of that liquor.

Ashamed is what she feels when her brothers see her.

Disgrace is what she hears from her sister's lips.

Suprised is what she really feels.

She finally got a taste of air.

She caught her breath once again in a long time.

She saw hope.

She saw someone who left, who destroyed her.

He returned.

He didn't stay very long though.

Only a few "Hellos" and "Goodbyes" were exchanged.

Then, poof, he's gone.

Her head is back underwater.

This time she's fighting the pressure holding her down.

She's trying to escape this torture because she realized she's wanted in this world.

Her mom then told her "Did you know that God gave his best soldiers the hardest missions, and they ain't leaving until they accomplish them."

This girl was given a difficult mission.
