So little does the outside world see Of the girl that I know to be me Of the girl who seems perfect in every way Who appears so flawless and in such array
So little does the outside person know That I too fight demons that do not show That I do see myself in the mirror and want to cry Because the girl I see is not who you see outside The girl that I see is messy and lost She struggles with self image whether you believe that or not She chooses actions carefully although they seem so effortless Her insecure comments and remarks are heard as cleverness Although her love runs deep, his love will always run shallow And he toys with her emotions because she is young and she is callow
But so little does the outside world know of her soul Because as she appears is not the story at all.
A response poem to Her. Written by Katastrophic. :) One world. Two different sets of eyes.
