Silence is her loudest cry,
although her eyes seem to be dry,
what she's trying to imply,
is that no one sees the burning red eye.
hidden beneath a shining smile,
leaving the room in amazing style,
is a girl in single file,
walking alone the next one hundred miles.
when the girl looks up to the stars.
all she sees is a million prison bars,
tapped and enclosed and no one knows,
the girl being swallowed up by fears.
behind a smile is a broken girl,
trying to fight this horrid world,
her emotions soon begin to swirl,
breaking another broken girl.
