Jul 2013
On the outside she seems tough
She never sheds a tear
She wears a smile proudly
Never lets anyone see
The pain that courses through her
Every single day
The little girl inside her
Frail and fragile
Crying to get out
But everyday she’s stuck inside
Unable to get free
Every night the girl comes out
She cries herself to sleep
When morning comes
The smile’s back and no one suspects a thing
She’s weaker than you think.
