She tries hard to hide her feelings ~ and not wear them on her face But look closely and you can see them ~ things that time cannot erase The secrets that she carries ~She is not allowed to share Although she wants to tell you ~Fearing judgment she won’t dare She struggles just to stay alive~ Trying her best but you can’t see Others tell her to lay down her burdens ~So then she can be free Her vulnerabilty invisible to others ~ Tears shed only when alone On the outside she is perfect~On the inside broken and alone She hesitates to continue on ~balancing high up on the ledge She wonders what would happen~If she were to leap off of the edge Fearful of the future~Unable to work through the past Strength and courage once her armor~Are now things of the past Her trust and faith once again shattered~Why take another chance She wonders if it is better to walk away without a second glance

She is scared to go on...
She tries hard to hide her feelings ~ and not wear them on her face But look closely and you can see them ~ things that time cannot erase The secrets that she carries ~She is not allowed to share Although she wants to tell you ~Fearing judgment she won’t dare She struggles just to stay alive~ Trying her best but you can’t see Others tell her to lay down her burdens ~So then she can be free Her vulnerabilty invisible to others ~ Tears shed only when alone On the outside she is perfect~On the inside broken and alone She hesitates to continue on ~balancing high up on the ledge She wonders what would happen~If she were to leap off of the edge Fearful of the future~Unable to work through the past Strength and courage once her armor~Are now things of the past Her trust and faith once again shattered~Why take another chance She wonders if it is better to walk away without a second glance
