In her eyes

I See someone who’s hiding behind her

Lies

In Her Smile

I See a girl who is screaming for

Attention

Hoping too hide her past

This Girl

Drifts away into a daydream

So Beautiful And Powerful

I See shes dreaming of

You

Tonight

I See a girl

Who is so lost

Running from her fears

Fighting back the tears

Hoping things will stay the same

Pretending there’s no such thing as

change

Today I saw a girl

Who smiled just a little

Felt her heart open up

Too let people in

Yesterday

I knew a girl

Who thought life wasn’t worth it

Took the last sip

Just for fun

Let her body flow

Clumsily

I Never Saw That Girl

Again

That Girl

So magical

Unaware of her true beauty

Hiding behind the taunts

Of others

Her deep blue eyes

Prettier than the skies
