Description
This is the part of meThat you're never going to see
Because you never look hard enough
In the back of my mind she hides
That scared little girl
Wishing to escape
No one knows her
No one sees her
They've only scratched the surface
She waits there and cries
Wondering when is ever a good time
To finally reveal herself
But every time she tries
The weight of the world crushes her again
If someone
Would notice
Maybe she could have a fighting chance
But no one takes the time
To look past the faΓ§ade and see
The real me
I've never opened up
I've never let myself show
It seems the act is enough
To keep me from letting go
But something no one sees is how different I can be
Through words I express this side that is trapped underneath
I can only hope that through my words
Someone has the sense to search deeper
And pull that girl from the shadows so she can crumble the mask that's hiding her
All the chaos that swirls in my mind
Backs her up
Tells her she can't leave
And she only believes the lie because no one's told her differently

Yes! Start writing poetry again, become omnivorous like yours truly. I need to finish up my stories and poems, I have a ton of partially complete stuff lying around.

Yeah, I think so, too. The first part just popped into my head as part of a song, so I just went with it. Decided to put it more in free verse format rather than boring "Verse Chorus Verse Chorus Bridge Chorus."

I tend to work better with that. Like in Flutter. With rhyming, I feel strangled and corny. Only certain people can really pull it off.
