Look into my eyes, what do you see?

Look into my eyes, what do you see?
A broken girl lives in there, but who is she?
She walks alone,
she's frightened to even be in her own home.
She cries herself to sleep,
the pain is just too deep.
She tries her best to stay strong,
but it seems like everything she does is wrong.
She tries so hard to hide the pain,
she cries out of sight or in the rain.
She puts on her headphones to drown out the fights,
she imagines jumping off of a cliff even though she's afraid of heights.
She tries to fall asleep and have a happy dream,
but she only has nightmares in which she is beaten and screams.
Look into my eyes, what do you see?
A broken girl lives in there, but who is she?
I won't lie,
the broken girl inside,
is none other than me...

~This is a true story~
