the inside

Search the inside to see the outside

Sometimes we`ll never show

Whats in the inside can't come out to the outside

Nobody will ever know

The girl that sits in the corner

Nobody can see

She smiles and seems happy

It's almost too hard too believe

Whats eating her inside 

Is covered by the brands of make up

But that doesn't matter

The day still drags on

She wonders what might they think if i was gone?

Would they cry or stare after MY funeral is done?

Who will fill that empty seat where I used to sit?

Or do they not understand what was really so heavy.

She goes home that day to her smiling family 

And they don't know what she feels for she is quite

She is to scared to tell anyone

Her mother's face thinking lord why is this happening to me?

She seemed so happy just days ago?

She wants to find the meaning and love in life

But she's lost all that seemed to make her smile

Her friends, They don't care, Her family maybe...

She wont do anything though, it would be selfish to take their baby away.

So she lives with the tears and the loneliness and pain 

She'll slap on her smile for another day

She'll find her life through the grace of god

But the journey's not easy for it's just began

You definitely have a talent, Tink. I'm 63 years old, but your youthful pen made me feel that teen angst once again...
