How She Felt

You'd never think it was her

She was just a normal girl

She had friends and everything

Did really well in school

But she had a secret

That has haunted her

How she felt

No one would know

Until it was too late

She thought she really

Wasn't that pretty

She hurt herself

But not cut herself

How she felt

No one would know

She made herself feel pretty

She wrote over and over

In her notebook

I AM PRETTY, I AM PRETTY, I AM PRETTY

In red ink

Just to remind herself

Not to cut herself

Not to fall under pressure

How she felt

No one would know

She would listen to music

All day long

Until she cried herself

To sleep, thinking

I AM PRETTY, I AM PRETTY

Just to keep herself together

How she felt

No one would know

And no one would care

But that's just them

And that's just her

She might even be a bit

Mentally Unstable

Just a little push forward

And she would snap

She would tell herself

whenever she looked in the mirror

I AM PRETTY, I AM PRETTY

How she felt

No one would know

And only he would care
