The girl

So there's this girl,
you could say that I know her pretty well,
I see her everyday,
staring out the window,
hoping for a better day,
but as the day passes and the night comes,
her nightmares begin,
she starts coming undone,
she cries herself to sleep,
the hurt is just too deep,
she cant handle what she goes through everyday,
she keeps thinking that there has to be a different way,
so she grabs her clothes, puts on her coat,
and slowly writes this simple note,

"Dear friends and family who will never see,
I cant be this person you want me to be,
I'm sorry I'm not perfect, I just want you to know,
that I'll love you forever, but I had to let go,
you thought I was happy, you never saw me cry,
but the smile I wore was just a big lie,
I'll hope you understand I just had to leave,
cuz I'm not the perfect person that you wanted me to be..."

She left in silence,
not making a sound,
put the note on the table,
and slowly looked around,
the note was goodbye,
and someday they'll see,
she didn't leave to try to be mean,
she had to go,
but maybe they'll think of her,
but I know they wont......
