You always knew
You'd be the princess
You'd have the fairytale
You'd get your happily-ever-after
Because you're the one that shines
G l o w s
You're the star
The one with the future brighter than the sun
You always knew you'd live a charmed life
It always hurt
.
Sweetheart,
You are too kind for your own good
Because you
The beautiful princess
A c h e
Because everyone else doesn't shine so bright
Or glow
They aren't stars
.
You can't help it
You really can't
And that makes it hurt worse
They can't even hate you for it
Because all you've ever done was good
But while you float
On your throne of clouds
Mud bogs down everyone else
And they're struggling against it
But they are sinking
Downdowndown
And you are rising
So high
.
And you try to tether yourself
To pull back
Fall down
To get your skirts dirty
And have your mascara run
But you always look flawless
And when you cry, everyone tries to help
Which makes you cry more
Why don't they hate you?
.
You want them to resent you
To dislike the girl who always smiles
And picks up their books
And gives them a hug when they need it most
You want them to hate you
As much as you hate yourself
.
'Cause you're the girl with the happy ending
You're the one who gets everything
And your heart hurts because you see food
On a silver platter
While everyone you love starves
Life aint fair, baby girl
A/N: I can't help but write self-hate poems (indicative much?), this wasn't going to be, but everyone has to have some major flaw and hers was, well, that she didn't have one. This isn't my favorite thing I've written, but I don't dislike it.
PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO REVIEW.
