Close your eyes,
Picture a girl,
She’s medium height, she’s got almond shaped dark brown eyes,short hair,and dark brown skin
She’s loud, she laughs, and talks about normal things,guys,her favorite shows,and complains about her latest problem
She’s not popular, she’s not a loner, she just average,
You’d be surprised to know that’s only her outside,
She keeps herself tucked away,you never see her cry
She keeps herself out of sight,who is she in your eyes?
She’ll keep herself tucked away she’ll never go outside
Somebody get her out,she doesn’t want to hide
She just doesn't want to know how she's seen in your eyes.

Definitely relatable. I found that the last 5 lines were the strongest. I love the way you ask the reader a question, I find that makes the reader ask themselves whether they really "know" the people in their life, or whether they should search a little deeper.
