This rain cloud
wont leave from
above my head,
why cant i shake
this cloud?
it moves about
undetected, unknown,
because nobody looks past her
shimmering eyes,
her dazzling smile,
and her forced laugh,
But little does anyone
know that the eyes
shimmer from unfallen tears,
her smile dazzles to draw
attention from her scarred arms,
and a forced laugh so nobody sees
the pain inside,
maybe someday this sheet will
lift, and the rain cloud
will move on just like rain clouds do,
maybe someday everyone will look
past her shimmery eyes,
her dazzling smile,
her forced laugh,
and see her for who she really is
a girl under a cloud,
needing to be loved
