Fake
July 22, 2009
Such a pretty teenage girl
but nobody knows
how she truly feels
cuz it never shows
That pretty fake smile
she wears everyday
deep down shes wishing
"God, please take me away"
Jewelry and sleeves
to hide her arms
wristbands and hoodies
and bracelets with charms
The burn of the blade
so pleasurable when deep
she starts to think
and begins to weep
Shes gone too far
a pretty white light
and that's when she left up
that fateful night.
