Current mood: scared.
Music: something corporate-leaving through the window.
Subject: the words i know. the feelings that dont show.
looks like ive fallen from my cloud.
thats just the way it goes.


she walks right by. her eyes facing down.
her lips frozen to a permanent frown.
eyes holding nothing more than a blank gaze.
a dream she has of feeling her mother's praise.
shes lost. she has no path to travel.
shes watching her entire life unravel.
a stanger on the street would know nothing of her past.
knowing all her hardships would be impossible to grasp.
a way to be happy. a way to fix life's despair.
so there would be no others experiencing this blank stare.
she covers all the wounds w/ a laugh and a smile.
shes knows everythings going to be okay. it just might take a while.
this girl, she always tries to run away.
but she wishes for nothing more than to find a place to stay.
shes trying to make no more mistakes,
shes trying not to be someone fake.
shes trying to find a way to change.
no longer wanting to be someone strange.
so, this girl. the one w/ the lost stare.
know that shes trying. she knows that lifes never fair.
shes only trying to keep this away.
hoping tomorrow will bring a brighter day.

xoxo.
