A Girl

Unable to get a grip on her thoughts,
She will always remain lost.
She's a girl who's afraid.
A girl who's never given a chance.
A girl who'd voice has been silenced.
She doesn't want anymore violence.
But when she wants to speak her mind.
Everyone thinks that she is a lie.
She's always underestimated.
Always feeling jaded.

Her thoughts are a jumbled mess.
She can't get rid of her stress.
She takes a pen,
and sit on her bed.
She writes in her note book.
She always needs to look.
For a hook.
She wishes for her family to read her poetry.
Wishes for them to be proud of her,
But that's just a dream.
A dream that makes her scream.
She screams to the heavens,
Missing her chance
To earn her wings.

At night, she cried herself to sleep.
and with a restless mind,
All she can seem to find.
Is a girl that looks just like her
But that other girl isn't invisible..
Isn't miserable.

She whispers,
"Little girl, close your eyes and you'll see the truth in the night."
