She's the girl in denial about her addictions, She grew up with ****** parents He's the guy who obsesses about a hateful world, His parents divorce had stripped him of all hope She's the girl who looks callously into your eyes, Her mother abandoned her for days on end as a child He's the guy who treats girls like toys, His mother never paid him much mind She's the girl who has walls up as high as the Wall of China, She was molested by a family member He's the guy who never speaks much, He was bullied ruthlessly in middle school She's the girl who stings you with her sharp tongue, Her mother verbally abused her and as a result she has little self worth He's the guy desperate to find someone to love him, Because he wants to convince himself that he won't fail at love the way his parents failed at their marriage She's the girl who everyone calls an attention seeking ***** That's the way she learned to cope with a lack of affection at home He's the guy who flakes on genuine love, His ex fiance shattered his heart and left without saying goodbye I'm the girl who writes and observes others, Trying my best to keep my mind off of my own anxieties.

She's the girl in denial about her addictions, She grew up with ****** parents He's the guy who obsesses about a hateful world, His parents divorce had stripped him of all hope She's the girl who looks callously into your eyes, Her mother abandoned her for days on end as a child He's the guy who treats girls like toys, His mother never paid him much mind She's the girl who has walls up as high as the Wall of China, She was molested by a family member He's the guy who never speaks much, He was bullied ruthlessly in middle school She's the girl who stings you with her sharp tongue, Her mother verbally abused her and as a result she has little self worth He's the guy desperate to find someone to love him, Because he wants to convince himself that he won't fail at love the way his parents failed at their marriage She's the girl who everyone calls an attention seeking ***** That's the way she learned to cope with a lack of affection at home He's the guy who flakes on genuine love, His ex fiance shattered his heart and left without saying goodbye I'm the girl who writes and observes others, Trying my best to keep my mind off of my own anxieties.
Each stanza is based on a person who is or was in my life.
