she was full of happiness
she was so innocent and pure
she was full of hope and dreams
she used to be the kid that was so sureall grown up so mature and beautiful
she looks in the mirror and sighs
"you're so pretty"... "i love your eyes"
that's all they say but it's all lieshead down, eyes closed... "you're not tall"
"you're not pretty"... "you're not even smart"
She covers her eyes and block them out
She shouldnt listen or she'll fall apartshe lays in bed, staring up
she longs the days of joy
tears start and they won't stop
she feels like a toygetting played and being used
is her pain and her demons amusea/n
i wrote this initialy as homework but ended up not using it so i just revised it to was it is now.
