The Person Within....
She drowns in her tears and empty cries.When someone sees is when she hides.
There's endless glares, but noone stops to look within.
She's supposed to be strong so she holds all in.
The radiant smile is her emotional wall.
Were she to loose it she would have to bear all.
Her darkest fears, her whole soul out there.
Could everyone looking really see?
Or would they see what they want to believe.
She's strong, nothing gets her down.
If people could only see behind the mask.
They would see the person she hides.
The weak child-like figure she keeps inside.
Would she let herself be vulnerable enough to let anyone in...
And see the true person within?
This person she hides inside,
Is it a person anyone would like?
This person isn't always strong.
But through her life she's always held on.
Through the ups and downs.
The turmoil and strife.
She has had to fight for a life.
This fight has hurt her in more ways than one.
But really her life has only begun.
Could people around her stand it when she falls?
Something tears her down again and makes her crawl.
Crawling through the circumstance she has landed in again.
No matter what she is determined to win.
