Another View
August 6, 2013
She looks just about perfect
each girl's her in their dreams.
She gets envious glances
but she isn't who she seems.
She sat near me in classes,
so we became quite close,
and now I know her stories;
she has no room to boast.
Her father only beats her,
her mom left her at home,
her brother passed last year,
she is left alone.
She hides her cuts with make up,
she fakes her pain as joy,
She takes out all her stress
using a razor or a boy.
So before you go on judging,
make sure you know the truth;
all bad lies behind good,
look from another view.
