The Outside:
A happy, smiling girl
Not a care in the world
Interested in everything you have to say
Laughs off the attacks
They mean nothing to her
She is strong
Something didn’t go her way?
Oh well, there is always next time
Bad day?
Tomorrow will come
The nice, optimistic girl
Who is (almost) loves

The Inside:

Some days it’s a struggle to smile
But it’s easier than showing wear
She cares about what people think
About how she portrays herself
She would rather help others than herself
The attacks pierce her heart
If only she had the strength to stand up for her feelings
Something didn’t go her way?
Why me?
She genuinely gives a care and wants to be nice
Doesn’t she deserve happiness?
Bad day?
Tomorrow will come
The nice, optimistic girl
Who is (almost) loved

In Conclusion:

Not everyone is what they seem
But not everyone is fake
A nice girl may really be a nice girl
Is strength standing up for yourself, your feelings?
Or is strength putting your best foot forward
So you can help others in their time of need?
Even the nicest, most carefree person has daily struggles
So why hurt someone?
It can stripe deeper than you think
Look for than nice, optimistic girl
Who is (almost) loved
And love her for everything she is
