Societies Broken
March 7, 2016
The girl with the beautiful face and a pretty smile
They see her as what she is on the outside
Ignoring her brokeness
The sadness in her eyes
Or the shyness of her smile
She is cute as a button
Yet damned as the devil
But that is a secret they will never know
She needs fixing
Yet they only see what she can provide;
A beautiful face and a pretty smile
But soon that face will wrinkle
And that pretty smile will fade
Because if you ignore something thats broken
Its luster fades away
