I am the girl
that looks to the rest of the population
and wonders what the hell they think they're doing.
I am the girl who is small
yet strong.
I am the girl that never cries
until someone I love is lost.
I am the girl that will fight
anyone or anything
just to survive
just to keep the ones I love safe.
I am the girl who is scared to trust
and scared to love.
I am the girl that will love fiercely and stay loyal
as long as they do the same.
I am the girl who fights
to appear strong
even when I am broken inside.
I am the girl who is now
past her breaking point.
I am the girl who struggles every night
to keep the blades away.
I am the girl who knows every possible way
to **** yourself and how much pain it brings.
I am the girl with fresh cuts and barely healed scars.
I am the girl with burns on her arms.
I am the girl who never sees light,
no matter how bright others say the sun shines.
I am the girl who others avoid and call a freak
or a ******.
I am the girl that has been pushed down so many times
sometimes I wonder if I should even get back up.
I am the girl who tries her hardest to reach her goal,
succeed and survive.
No matter what.
I am the girl who has lived heaven
I am the girl who has lived hell.
Who am I?
Well, I'll leave that to be decided.
Who are you?
