- Welcome to my Life -

Once, there was a girl
She seemed to all the world
As a person like any other
But nothing was less true

Because what no one ever knew
Was how she really felt
How she struggled
To get through another day
How she managed
To eventually fall
into a short, restless sleep

No one ever noticed
How many tears
Streamed down her face
How she laughed out loud
Before she looked away
How she did everything she could
To keep her secrets in her eyes

Once, there was a girl
She seemed to all the world
As a person like any other
But no one ever realized
No one truly cared
About the broken girl inside

The thoughts are beautiful, sad emotional. I once felt like that. And you've captured the thoughts truthfully, and realistically. Well Done

a gray ballad about a woebegone girl...this is honestly a poignant piece of poetry.
"No one truly cared about the broken girl inside" a very truthful depiction when there's no one around you during your rainy days. Good work here.

This was emotional and powerful. A lot of girls could really relate to this piece.

You expressed your thoughts clearly and descriptively and you really draw the reader in with the passion behind your words. Great job!
