Bewildered with excitement and hope
her eyes glisten, her smile sparkles
She glimmers amidst the gloom around her.
She's special
She keeps a secret she cannot tell
She seemingly looks sweet
but underneath all that glitters is a sad and painful past
Behind that smile is a girl crying in the inside
She's in disguise
She wears a mask
Yet she tells, nay she shows, that she's okay
She pushes herself to forget
She fools herself everyday
She convinces herself that her darkness is just a nightmare
That she's not awake,
That she's in another alternate universe
She believes that when she wakes up,
They will all be gone
But then, I see right through her.
I see that she's beautiful and that she's strong
Not because of the image she project
but because she is a warrior fighting her demons,
because she chooses to live
because she is alive
