Look Past

Look at her, smile and you’ll see a happy girl.
Look at her clothes, and you’ll see a girl trying to blend in.
Look a her, and you’ll see a normal girl.
But look past her smile, her clothes, her appearance
You’ll see a girl who no one understands
A girl who wants to show the world what shes made of
But no one will watch.
Wants to speak out
But no one will listen.
And maybe if they had, maybe she wouldn’t have done it.
Maybe if someone had tried to be her friend.
But no one ever did…
Maybe if her parents hadn’t kicked or beaten her
But they always did.
She just wanted to end the pain.
She just wanted to be happy.
And maybe now she finally will be.
