THE HiddEN GiRl

Across the room they seem to see
A smiling girl who looks like me.
she loves to joke, not attention she seeks
She laughs and talks, and always speaks.
She's the girl they think would have it all.
But inside her is where her tears fall.
Inside her mask is where I dwell
This broken girl she hides so well.
I try to wipe her tears away
But they fall more each coming day
She tries to laugh when her heart breaks
But hurts with every smile she fakes.
And inside her is where I dwell
The hidden girl she hides so well.
The girl that no one ever sees,
Behind a mask that looks like me.
