One Step Back, Two Steps Forward

Judging A Book By It's Cover

Every individual is believed to write their own story,
Perfectly planned,
Written unto paper.

But is it true that everything should make you stronger?
Facing the worst,
Day after day.

Waiting for that emptiness to be relieved,
To be healed,
To be understood.

Putting up a front to act strong,
But feeling broken and damaged,
Dragged down by your own thoughts.

Showing it all on the surface to none,
But one,
You trust to guard you,
To give you all that you deserve.

Judging a book by it's cover,
But never knowing how beautifully those pages were written.
