#peppy
She's obviously happy Obviously joyful Obviously peppy Obviously she's had a happy life Right? What isn't obvious is her tears, the ones she lets flood out after shutting her bedroom door at night. Her scars she's hidden after the incident. The "friends" she left behind. No one knows She's dying inside No one knows How much she wants to jump How much she wants to pull the trigger How much is weighing down on her shoulders. She acts happy She acts joyful She acts peppy She is woeful. Blood and death fill her thoughts. Cheer and hope fill her spoken words.

Obvious
Like sweet & sour, Life sure is peppy, And even a bit more. Imbalanced like my old diet, It is more on the sour side. But it's okay for me, More patient I'll be. I'll not make time bend, For I know not the end. Making sure to keep her happy, But forgetting not I'm not a puppy. Except abandoning it at stakes, Learning from my mistakes, Give life all what it takes.
