"She had skin as smooth as glass
She had a smile that could calm the roughest of waters.
She had dark chocolates eyes and feathers for hands.
But after paying more attention, I learned that her eyes were as empty as they were dark.
I learned, that she sometimes had talons for hands because affection was a foreign concept.
I learned, that she had a walk that seemed like she carried boulders in her bag instead of books
But most of all, I learned that not everyone that seems happy truly is."
