She loves everything

but herself.

She loves to talk,

but when it comes to her,

she doesn't have a thing to say.

She needs help

but never asks for any.

She needs a father

but knows he can't be bothered.

Seems so open,

but she's built walls

so strong

they're never gonna fall.

She looks down at her hands,

thinks really hard for a long time,

looks up,

and says nothing.
