"Every day is Halloween, isn't it? For some of us..."-Tim Burton



Eyes that once shone like the sun, now shrouded by darkness

Lips once always smiling, forever pulled into a frown

Hands that once touched delicate flowers are soaked with blood

Her eyes used to see everything good and happy, but as time went

She saw the ugly colors of truth

She now sees that the people she thought loved her hold nothing but useless hatred towards her

Was it she wasn't pretty enough? Not good enough? Was she ill behaved?

No

It is because in the eyes of those she thought cared fr her she is not perfect enough

She tried, but every time she was close they raised their standards of perfect

And she fell back into the darkness caused by them

Her heart forever scarred because of how much she has been hurt

Her face stained with tears as shejust wants it all to end

The pain... all the pain that makes her feel unwanted

The pain of the cuel words said to her

Pain of of being hated by those she thought cared

The pain of feeling as if she she never really belonged in her family,

In society,

In life

Every Time I even think of you, all those bad memories just fade away, 'cause your smile's enough, you're enough...

Beautiful!
