She stares up at the sky
Getting lost inside
She contemplates her life
Kind of strange
In a moment it could all be lost
To a knife
On her back she lays
Gazing up at the stars
Watching them, they twinkle in her eyes
She drags the blade
And the lights above blur
As she cries
Not because the breaking of skin
But because of the pain
That she has always held within
She keeps it inside
Can't let the world see
Always pretending to be
Happy
She fakes a smile
But it's just a disguise
To mask everything
That she has to hide
She seeks attention
From those who try to get close
But it's only to replace
Being ignored at home
She tries so hard
To open her heart
But it's difficult
After being lost in the dark
Even the brightest of lights
Can't fully help
It can't banish the shadows completely
She's stubborn that's true
As adamant as the stars above
That continue to shine
She tries her best to stand tall
But at times, she just can't fight
And even stars in space
Will sometimes fall
