Behind her smile
there are tears that run so deep
Again that no one could ever understand
She's lost beyond words
Will she ever be found?
She contemplates leaving
but she can't find the courage
Even the thought brings on fear
Maybe one day maybe someday
Just one day she'll take that leap and lose her faith
Day by dad silent tears, internal pain
cutting her like a knife
oh so deep the wounds, they'll never heal
She just exists, not living, forever a tortured soul.

Her heart was empty
her mind was on overload
behind her she dragged darkness
the kind that draws tears
she knew everyone
but not a soul knew her
she was
but she wasn't
she could
but she couldn't
she was but a mere ploy in his illusion
yet he was her world
she was the purest form of sadness.
