•EVIL INSIDE•

Eyes as bright as stars.
Hair elegant as the sea.
But the truth of this is,
There's an evil inside me.

Though my lips are sweet as candy,
And my actions speak great things.
The black in me is growing,
And laces my words like strings.

I swear it wasn't always true.
My love for life shone bright,
But then I grew up older
And things just weren't right.

It happens to us all.
When we grow out of our shell
We realize life is cruel,
And people are not well.

As kids we didn't know
That things could be this bad,
That life wasn't as good
As said by mom and dad.

There's ghosts in all our closets.
Something that we're fighting.
But we pretend that all is perfect,
That our don't sting.

Beautiful on the outside,
As pretty as a ring.
Physically I'm fine.
The insides another thing.
