That girl

My heart aches for that girl

yearning for acceptance

staring into the abyss

wanting but never taking

Is there hope for that girl?

standing alone in the crowd

wanting to fit in anywhere

but craving to be unique

Will anyone help that girl?

as her wrists bleed again

tears falling forever more

pain undulating in her bones

Does anyone know this girl?

faking her constant smile

she looks back at me and I cry

finding that girl is me

Very well written. I felt this way when I was a little bit younger. Great work!

I understand completely where you're coming from. I feel this way sometimes as well.
