Inside Out- A. Flores

Outside lives a girl with a smile that will brighten up the room,
yet inside hides a girl with a frown full of despair.

Outside lives a girl with eyes of joy that brings you to ease,
yet inside hides a girl shedding tears of sadness.

Outside lives a girl with a beautiful laugh that's contagious,
yet inside hides a girl screaming her lungs out in unwanted anger.

Outside lives a girl with the personality everyone envies,
yet inside hides a girl full of insecurities and shame.

Outside lives a girl who is fearless and tough,
yet inside hides a weak girl who lives in fear.

Outside lives a girl full of life,
yet inside hides a girl full of pain, wanting to die.

Outside lives a girl with a perfect image,
yet inside hides a girl with regrets and mistakes.

Outside lives a girl of innocence,
yet inside hides a girl with tremendous guilt.

Outside lives a girl with goals and aspirations,
yet inside lives a girl lost in confusion.

What you see on the outside is my personal disguise,
What hides underneath you can't even begin to imagine.

Mirror, Why must you lie. You call me pretty. You call me skinny. You say I am perfect. Someone takes a picture of me and I am ugly. I step on the scale and I am fat. I am not perfect.

Behind Closed Doors

Behind closed doors was a man, He hides most flaws if he can. When people look on, They see nothing's wrong, But inside his emotions are gone.

They Ask

People always ask what's wrong. Truth is I have no clue. Am I mad. Is it just me. I feel alone when its dark even if I have a whole crowd around me.

Box

I haven't written in a while and It's not that I've had nothing to say It's because I have grown to neglect and reject the way I feel, Instead of injecting and reflecting the mix of confusion...

Numb Heart

My heart has gone numb, It has no feeling at all, And when they tried to fix it, Apart it did fall, There's no light inside it, Or bundle of hope, A feeling of brightness, How can I cope.

Eyes

Look into my eyes. Tell me what you see. It won't be happy. It won't be pretty. The way I act. Makes me seem happy. It makes me seem fine. But look into my eyes. There you will see. See the hurt.
