This girl is me

She cracks a smile
to hide the pain
she pretends to be happy
but it's all just a game

overpowering her laugh
not letting people know she cries
hurting herself
buried in all the lies

bad decision
she's made in the past
all the boys
she knew wouldn't last

her heart is breaking
a little more each day
she needs some help
but they can't get in her way

the sadness is there
and will never be gone
the hatred is unfair
and goes on and on

the problems she's had
who wouldn't be sad?
I know how it is
and it makes me mad

it's easy to see
this girl is me!

Be strong. You are a beautiful soul. You are worth so much more than you know.
When I was reading this, I felt like I was the one who wrote it. Not the style but the emotion behind it. I know what it's like to feel that way. To sleep around just to make yourself feel wanted but the feeling of self hatred just doesn't go away. I know. That was me.
Just to let you know you're not alone. You're NEVER alone. ♥
