There's this girl.
She never gives up on you.
She loves everyone the same,
Even when they don't want her to.
She's always smiling,
Giving people love,
But no one ever asks her
If she needs some cheering up.
She's secretly hurting,
But it's starting to show through.
She can't hold it in any longer.
If only she knew she didn't have to.
Her name starts with an M
And ends with an E.
She keeps on praying
That someone will see
Just how hopeless
This little girl can be.
Now that she let it out,
Now it's not locked inside.
Life is getting better.
She escaped suicide.
The light is on again.
The darkness went away.
The smile on her face is real.
She's no longer fallen astray.
This hit me hard. I always try to make others happy, I'll smile, I'll listen, I'll make sure that they know they're loved. When it comes to myself, though, I never let anyone see how deep...
There Is Hope
