The Girl Inside

She hides inside of me
So small
Huddled up in a corner
I want to let her show 
But I'm so afraid
She's nothing like the face I put on
She is insecure
I am loud
I never stop talking
Afraid of their response

She hides 
Wanting someone to tell her she's loved
That someone cares
But how can they love her
No one knows she exist
I want to tell my friend
My best friend
But they wouldn't believe me
They would just laugh
Thinking it was a joke
I don't like her
She doesn't like me
There is another girl I'd much rather be
Who's more like me
