Picture Perfect.

OneAndOnlySol April 17th, 2023

Everyone thinks that my life is perfect,

When they look at me they see some spoiled rich kid

With the dyed hair,

and the denim jacket.

Everyone thinks that my life is perfect.

When they see my house, they see a palace

With the lush, green lawn

and the gaping windows.

They don't know what hides behind the facade,

The scars under the sleeves of my jacket,

the pain through the windows of the house,

When they see me they see perfection.

But I'm not perfect.

They don't see me when I'm alone,

When the tears come,

When the fear sets in,

They don't see me when I am broken,

They don't see what I have to go through.

My life,

It's picture perfect,

With secrets hiding behind the frame.

I thought you were my friend.

(TW: )

I thought you were my friend,

When you smiled at me from across the room,

When you walked over at lunch and put your tray down,

Your words got to my head, and to my heart,

Blinding me to the numbing poison that they were.

I thought you were my friend,

Even when you 'Accidentally' stole my favorite book

Even when you 'Accidentally" shoved me down the stairs,

EVen when you 'Accidentally" made me hurt.

I thought you were my friend.

Until you called me a freak,

Until you left me broken, for someone new,

Until you used me.

I thought you were my friend,

I let you have my heart,

Only for you to crush it on the pavement,

And turn your back.

I thought you were my friend.

Biggest mistake I ever made.
