Complete with Red Stains

by Taylor   Apr 27, 2006


She's beautiful as always
With flowers in her hair
To everyone around her
It seems shes free of care

As she walks the hallways
Her perfect smile gleams
Inside everything's a blur
She fights to keep her dreams

Her gorgeous eyes they gaze
As they hold back the tears
She secretly falls apart
Not telling her unsuspecting peers

Flawless body hasn't eaten in days
They just think she's pretty
She's failing like her broken heart
Most insecure girl in the city

She stares in the mirror upset
Disgusted with what she sees
They've been wanting her forever
But all she can notice is displease

She's never known perfection yet
She's just dealing with the pains
But her outfits as beautiful as ever
Complete with red stains...

** i wrote it for a contest based on that title that i was given.
