Behind a mask

by XxFragileXSoulxX   May 31, 2006


Theres a girl that everyone used to know,
The girl who tried to hide herself,
behind and invisible mask that she could only see
To try and hide the emotions that were left unsaid.

Only few see the pain within her eyes,
The pain she tries so desperately to hide,
Behind those beautiful, hazel eyes of hers,
Is a girl that just wants to die.

When you see her walking through the halls,
She is laughing and has a beautiful smile on her face
But that smile is fake and so is the laughter
She wishes that it was real but it never is and never will be

Some people that she trusts see scars on her body
All scars filled with pain that never seem to fade away
Even if they manage to fade its like they are still there
The memory of what she did and why still lies deep within her skin.

No one would have guessed
That this girl would ever do the things she did
Taking blades and putting them to her skin
Going deeper and deeper every time

The scars resemble a memory,
A memory that was and still is very painful to her
Whenever she looks upon her skin it reminds her of a broken heart
A broken heart that never seemed to mend

She now doesn't live where we all would expect
On the news one night there was a story about a girl,
A girl that was found dead upon the floor with a bloody knife within her hand
And upon her body was a letter saying Im Sorry.

She now lies under the earth, wearing the best dress she had
An angel with wings was placed right above her grave it said,
Here lies a girl with a broken heart.
May god give her wings and mend her heart."

    That is painfully beautiful, i used to be like that girl..., always hiding the hurt emotions inside and put on a fake smile to hide the loneliness inside... but something tragic made me snap out ot if... because it wasnt just me anymore.. but i will forever carry pain... hope that girl found happiness and peace that she saught in the end. hope it was all worth it, worth dieing for....

    it was a brilliant write....keep it up
    5/5
