What did they do to me?

I used to be so unique,

Now I feel skin deep,

I rely on makeup,

To cover it all,

To cover my flaws,

And all the secrets I hide,

Deep hidden,

Behind my blue eyes.

You can't see the pain,

That I mask with a smile,

And a laugh,

That never ceases to please you,

And everyone else,

I keep up the act,

That I am happy,

But instead,

I am breaking inside.

What did they do,

To the little girl,

Who thought anything was possible,

What did they do,

To the innocent child,

Who didn't know what life had in store,

What did they do,

To the younger me,

The one who had a positive outlook on life,

And didn't want to die,

What did they do?
