The cover of my life
My smile is just a cover
having a bright smile is great
doing this is being a fake
but I just want to cover!
life is rough when
there's no one to turn to,
I feels like I'm trapped in a den
but I strive to fight until the end.
Its rough but I need to be tough

This inspired me to write this poem because my life in the past has been bad and i'm greatful that things are slowly but surely getting better. Another reason that inspired me to write this peom is because I feel like people think i'm just a normal kid who has no problems, who comes from a wealthy family, who has everything she wants and who comes to school with a bright smile and always being happy. Behind this smile is many hurtful and dark feelings. I hope that people understand that not everybody is who they say to be or who they seem to be. Just be kind every day and be happy and stay positive no matter what the situation is.
