With a withering smile she closes her eyes

Pretending for one moment

Just one moment

She was truly happy

Yes when she opened her eyes

She could see every reason she should be

And none of those materialistic things

No only all of the things that makes a spirit bright

But no matter how hard she tried

She could never be happy

She struggled to hold on to such a dear feeling within her heart

Her lip curled and her teeth gnashed

Her pupils blown wide and froth dripping from her mouth

A wild beast she became to those she loved

But on the inside she was hurt

And if you must believe in the scary beast with a thorn in the paw

So be it

But it hurt her deeply whenever her loved ones could not recognize her

Come back to me when you are you

She loved deeper than a chasm with no bottom

It seemed like her emotions were always just heightened

When she was happy

A giggling mess was she

When she was angry

A frightful sight indeed

A heart so empty and yet so full

A wit so sharp and yet others found her dull

And so she slumber

Alone in her dark cave

So maybe her friends will love her

If she were ever able to crawl out unscathed.
