To everyone she is this happy girl, with not a care in the world, but they don't really know.
They Don't Know!
They don't know that she is hurting inside.
They don't understand the extent of her pain.
They don't see what lies beneath.
They see only what they want to see or rather what she allows them to see.
She hides the way she truly feels in an attempt to be strong.
She doesn't want to be a burden so she pretends as if everything's alright.
But everything is not alright.
The pain of her brother's death is still there.
The pain from what used to happen when she lived with her parents is still there.
The pain that comes from loving someone who may not love her back is still there.
She sits at home all alone every night.
She cries more than they could ever know.
She is so alone and her heart has a hole in it, bigger than they can ever imagine.
But they don't understand! They don't know!
