Deep Down

Behind the eyes of the little girl
I can see past the happiness and joy in her.

Deep down she suffers
she fools us with her fake smiles
and pretend laughter.

She has this hate and jealousy inside of her
wishing she was in a different world
wishing she had a different life.

Deep down she cries
out side she tries
her eyes tell us the story behind
but then again,
who knows other than her?

She doesn't want to worry others
she doesn't want to say a word.

All she ever wanted to do
is leave.
