There was girl

Small and sweet

She loved herself
And everyone

She did not care

What she made
Others think

She could be
Anything

There was a girl

Young and bright

She loved her friends
And those they liked

She was taught to care
What she made
Others think

She would be like
Everyone

There was a girl

Tall and fair

She loved a boy
And only him

She lived by only
What she made
Others think

She could not be
Nobody

There is a girl

Cold and gone

She hated she
And paid the price

She gave up because
What she made
Others think

She could not live for
Anyone

There was a girl

She wore a mask
To hide her face

She spoke in lies

To keep her place

She hid herself
To please a crowd

She took it all
To have a shroud

There was girl

Who laughed and cried

Who loved to dance
And sing all night

Who had no care for
What she made
Others think

Who would be
Anything

This is the girl
Who never was
