Pain and hurt, hidden tears;
No one knowing her quite fears.
People see her day to day;
Unaware she does not want to
live this way.
Happiness impossible to find;
Acting like this is all in her mind.
She cries for help in her room;
Hoping her lifestyle will not
lead her to ruin.

What does she do? What does she say?
She wishes someone could take her away.
She yells out for someone to hear;
But no one is to be found as her eyes begin to tear.
She is alone and extremely scared;
As she readies herself to be prepared.
Prepared for another day;
Prepared to pretend everything is okay.
