These Words Scream

The happy girl

She is happy and friendly
People say every day
Shy, but happy
And loving, they say

But if they looked closer
Into here eyes
They would see all the pain
The pain she lives through and hides

Why can't they see into
The poor girl's soul?
The girl who suffers bullying
But no one is told

She hides it well
Never tells anyone
But when someone is there
She hides it in fright

No one knows the pain
Because of her mask
She lives through each days
Impossible tasks

She hopes that soon
She will be OK
Because she might end it
With a knife one day
