Inspiration: The poem was written from a personal point of view. The 7th line shows that whatever information she gives relating to family issues to friends, she misses information-not exactly lying but in a way it can be seen as lying. She does this because the pain of recount is too much to bear.
Enjoy the poem!

Hey you, don't stare!
I know her, she's Claire
She has pearly whites
And never afraid to use them in fights
She laughs
But can put you in handcuffs
With words twisted in sprinkles of lies
On her feet she flies
All over campus she goes
Looks down as you pass by
Do yourself a favour
Don't waste your time on her
She is a workaholic
And is a chocolate's best friend
Her walls guard a fragile heart
One wall, two walls
She acts tough
But is soft at heart
There are no second glances
No second chances
Walls nailed together
Piece by piece with internal conflicts
Family problems come and go
She is cemented by the pain
She manages to smile
But never let's people come nearer than a mile
I don't want you to regret it
The bond might never grow
So I tell you
Here and now
Do yourself a favour
Don't waste your time on her
Because I am that girl
I am Claire
