Stronger then most

I can see the pain through her eyes
Seeing the betrayal in her years of living
The liers, the cheaters, and the abusers.
No friends to lean on, no shoulder to cry on.

All she ever needed....
All she ever wanted....
Was someone to understand her,
Someone to love her.

But she sits in the corner....
The darkest corner of her room,
And thinks...
Thinks of everything

How lucky she is to have a family
How lucky she is to have food
And shelter.
How lucky she is able to hear and see.

She's been betrayed
She's been destroyed
She's been thrown away
And lied to.
 
Yet she's stronger then most would be.
Stronger then anyone you've ever seen.
Ignores the pain, but still cries.
Feels the happiness and laughs.

Because she doesn't want to be destroyed,
By someone who has destroyed there on life.
She wants to rise above them all
and hold out a hand so they have someone to lean on
In their time of need.

Thanks, but is there such thing as "too deep"? And what could you possibly mean by "a young girl like you"? Hmmm, not trying to seem rude just wondering :}

i think this is too deep for a young girl like you! but really well written! =]

this is a very deep and moving poem. i like how the girl still lives on even though she's being shot down all the time. Its really hard for people to even get out of those situations and actually live on
