My tears stained my face with running mascara
And the red just covering the whites in my eyes
I felt such pain that was so unreal
Not until then, did he take me by surprise
He lifted my chin to see me better
He was observing the girl with lost dreams
He knew what I was going through
That nothing is ever what it seems
At school, I was happy-go-lucky
I was hidden in the popular crowd
They thought me no different
I was normal, adorable, proud
I knew that I couldn't hide for long
Even when I fit on so well
He wanted to help me as best he could
Take me away from this hopeless hell
He lifted my spirits by a soft kiss on the lips
And a few words I couldn't forget
"Don't worry, it's okay. I'm here now."
Words to ease me when I was upset
He looked past what he saw in the halls
And only went by what he saw in my eyes
And what caused the pain that was so unreal
Was what didn't take me by surprise
