"Teenagers only have to focus on themselves - its not until we get older that we realize that other people exist."- Jennifer Lawrence


She's fully hidden 

She's hidden behind the things she says about people. 

She's hidden behind the dirty looks she gives us. 

She's hidden behind the wasy she chooses to let other people fight her battles. 

She's hidden behind their sheild 

But reality is, 

She'll never be able to hide the hurt she has. 

She will never cover up the things she called us. 

The lies she told. 

She isn't hidden. 

In fact, it's just the opposite. 

She was never hidden, isn't, never will be. 

Because the saying "you can run, but you cant hide!" is real. 

She runs on the vowels she throws at us.

And all the punches she uses against herself. 

I don't think she ever wanted a friend. So keep running, keep trying to hide from yourself.

A poem about a nasty girl that turned on me and my best friend. Only true.
