My room

by joy   Oct 7, 2007


A life that seems so perfect
with only laughter in her eyes
but what noone seemed to notice
was that behind them, she softly cries

she comes to school smiling
from morning to afternoon
the walk home is cheerful
but for her, it all ends soon

she walks into her home
and smiles for them too
never a soul suspecting
noone has a clue

in her room , alone at last
the mask is whiped away
the tears begin to pour like rain
its the same thing everyday

a smile hides her saddest depths
laughter smothers her tears
cute clothes and makeup hide the scars
from when death was not a fear

once alone she is herself
the girl that noone knows
she finds her one true remedy
and glides it smooth and slow

her tears dont take away the pain
red has become the only cure
she guides the razor swiftly
her sufferings no more

this girl that smiles with tears in her heart
and laughs while her soul screams
theres so much about her you just dont know
because things are never what they seem

the glide of a razor,
a flick of the wrist
please tell me lord
how'd i get like this

please save my soul
from the hell ive built
please save my life
im pleading for help
