Thougths of mine..

when she was young

when she was young

she was bullied

no-one knew

she hid it all inside

for years and years

Till one day

someone cared

he seemed to understand

he was the only one who knew

he kept it between them

for years and years

they became best friends

when she was young

she believed she would be perfect

then one day

all of a sudden

everything seemed to come crashing down

when she was alone

she would ponder

the definition of perfection

was she perfect?

would she ever be perfect?

the answer was

she would never be perfect

she started to accept it

but then

every imperfection stood out

all of her flaws

she couldn't hide them

the bullying didn't stop

it only got worse

slowly she was falling apart

piece by piece

flaw by flaw

the beauty with in wouldn't be seen

for the beauty on the outside is what people judge by

even bullies have imperfections

no-one is perfect

the nicest people deal with a lot

just to make others smile

behind their eyes, the pain hides

the loneliest people have the most friends

yet they feel so alone

out of all the friends, no- one cares

society ruins things

we put labels on everything

the labels aren't important

it's not who we truly are

we are who we want to be

in the end labels can mean lots of things

but labels don't necessarily define you

you should define who you are

even bullies have gone through something

they're not judged because people are afraid of them

they bully to make themselves feel better

or maybe they just want attention because they're alone

it affects people differently

you shouldn't judge a person by their face

just like you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover

even if you're not the prettiest person

don't give up

everyone has flaws

the beauty is on the inside, not the outside

if people focused on inner beauty

less people would be hurt

less souls would be unhappy

more smiles would be real

the feeling of being happy is like no other

it feels like you're walking on air

like nothing could ever go wrong

but then you're brought back to reality

where problem after problem

it only gets worse

they tell you it will get better

but will it really?

or are they just lying?

you watch the people around you being happy

you watch them live their lives

you watch you're friends leave and forget about you

you suddenly feel so alone

that is when you feel truly alone

when in a crowd of people you feel alone

when in a group of friends you feel alone

while you watch you're friends become friends

they start to not talk to you

they will be better friends than you were

she failed at everything

being a friend

being a big sister

being herself

being a daughter

being a A/B honor roll student

being alive

there was only one thing she didn't fail at

slowly dying while no-one was around

when no-one was around to care

while no-one was watching

while no-one was around to care

while she was alone

she would cry

for hours without end

she always had a smile on her face

everyone thought she was okay

they believed the lies she told
