Hidden From You

I've always hidden away

Behind the long sleeves

Behind my smile

Behind the make up

Beneath by chest.

I've told you everything.

My love,

My hate,

But I never told you about this.

I hide it behind all my masks

that only suffocate me.

I dig beneath my books

To pull out my memory.

The sharp razor

The blunt people

The pain pressing

The lust to hurt

I stare at the photo

of a young girl smiling

She loved life

She has so much ahead of her.

But now, here she is,

Broken to million pieces

Failing in everything

Never meeting the criteria others set for her.

She tries too hard

To meet their standards.

She tries to hard

To look like them.

But it doesn't work that way.

She was meant to be the failure.

She was made to be a disgrace.

She was meant to be the odd one out,

the one her 'friends' never knew.

She was young as White

Then silver stole her heart

Red seeped from her heart

Her vision only black
