Face Value
A normal teenage girl
Thats all you will see
Until you take a deeper look into what is me
When you take the time
You will see I am not all what you may have believed
I am deeper than you ever anticipated me to be
So young and naive
Yet I am anything but
I have had my fair share of heartbreak and bad luck
My bad days started long long ago
In a time when I had nowhere to go
I did what I could
Yet I was hopeless and scared
Thought I was damaged beyond any repair
Then 3 years ago
I met my best friend
That little did I know was there till the very end
She protected me
And helped me to heal
Heal everything inside and everything out
I felt better then
Knowing she was there
Knowing I had someone who cared
She saved my life in more ways than one
I owe everything to her
Everything for sure
As you can see
I am far more than you thought me to be
All we care to ever see
Is what is put before our eyes
What we fail to observe
Is what is behind the mask
The mask we all wear to throw people a curve
See if they truly care
Or if they just don't mind
Taking us for just what they see
Taking us for face value
I know this is a long one guys, but sometimes the longest ones are the most beautiful. This one is my most heartfelt one yet.
