Looking at the photo frames,
I see what everyone else sees day to day.
A girl with a cheshire cat smile.
An infectious aura of happiness.
Wide, vibrant eyes.
Cascading wavy hair.
They can never know the truth
About the picture perfect girl.
The tears that roll down her cheeks
As she wonders,
Why she can't be what everyone expects
All the time.
A battle rages inside her mind,
She never lets anybody know
The sadness she feels
Trying to always smile.
The girl in the photo frame
Is always painfully happy.
