She tilts her head
In just the way
So her hair covers her eyes
So no one can see

Any emotion her mask may fail to conceal
No tear may be seen
Wandering lone down her face
Showing any sense of feeling she has

No one can see the sparkle
When she gets excited
For it is quickly extinguished
By the constant pain

The pain she also hides
Deep inside
So deep, she carries it everywhere
She’s held it for so long

And she doesn’t know why
Why she is like this
So secretive and depressed
She hasn’t always been like this
All she knows is

This has to stay a secret
No one can know
Of her world of hurt
Ever.
