It's all a lie...


Current mood: cold
Category: Life

How did She become the woman you see?

Are you aware that it's really not she?

Jaded and hidden with great effort on her part.

Lest anyone judge the truth of this heart.

As much as She longs to be known

Her truest heart you'll never behold.

You won't even try to know, this truth within

Caring in earnest has grown quite old.

This is an irony double-fold

The real girl, painfully hides

All the while you think she confides

In you? She doesn't. In deceit she abides.

Somewhere, perhaps in a misguided youth gone by

Out of necessity she learned to lie.

It's all so blurry, even she doesn't know,

Where the truth stopped being, and the lie began.

The anguish torments her, from truth she quickly ran.

Her withdrawal causes her great pain and despair

But what are her options, in a world without care?

Was it abuse or neglect that caused her flight?

Is it injustice that jolts her from sleep at night?

This battle within, too tired to fight~

She'll continue on with a deceptive smile

Her heart is protected, at least for awhile.

But its not.... It's only a lie we readily believe

More for you, not so for she.
