We all needed that person,
Who'd hold our hand,
Or gave us a hug,
When things start to worsen.

Or they'd assure you,
And tell you,
That everything will eventually be ok.

But unfortunately,
Not all of us have the luxury,
Of people like that in our lives.

So here we are,
Learning to stand alone,
Lightening the weight we carry.

She's selfish,
they say.
Always wanting things her way.

Such a know-it-all,
they murmur.
She sometimes makes us feel small.

What a bragger,
they rant.
She's too much, we can't!

A ton of confidence,
they utter.
Bet that made no difference.

High achiever,
they complain.
Oh, she's such a pain.

Too competitive,
they prattle.
Not at all sensitive.

All lies.
All lies
All lies.

Well,
sometimes.

if I tell you what happened to me
you’ll never be able to unsee it
if you leave, I won’t blame you

Small and petite,
Yet so sweet.
Kind and thoughtful,
Never awful.

But I wonder...
What secrets lie behind that smile of hers?

What did she went through?
What did she had to hide?
How much did she grew?
How much did she suffer on the ride?

Everyone's always looking for her help,
As if she were the problem-solving elf.
But who does she find,
When things start to get out of her mind?

When she gave them her sweet smile,
I wonder.
Is she fine?

Smiling wide,
Talking polite.
Standing tall,
In the ball.

Eyes sparkling,
Oh, what a darling.
Yet a mystery,
With such a history.

The newlyweds stood next to each other,
Smiling widely as they finally came together.
Fingers entwined,
As their thoughts unwind,
Of how strong their love is for one another.

But far away,
By the cake display,
There stood their friend,
Who had attended, but otherwise pretended.

As she watched, her thoughts went wild,
But she managed to put on a bittersweet smile.
She's happy for them,
Together they shine like a stunning gem.

But she can't shake it off,
The feeling that made her go soft,
When she realised she would never be like them.

Never,
Ever,
In
A
Million
Years.

Well, that was before he came along.
He came into her life pretty strong,
His laughs as sweet as a song,
And when she laughed along,
It was the greatest singalong.
