The Dark Truth
A girl unconfident and in doubt
People don’t seem to see the other side of her
When suddenly her thoughts go about
It slips people’s mind how she has her moments
How at times she feels like she’s stuck in a drought
It’s times like these where she doesn’t know where she’ll end up
She tries to overcome the obstacles
But in every road she takes
There are always a thousand bumps
Trying and ultimately succeeding in tearing her down
A few silent calls of help
Until someone notices her pain
Someone who actually cares
Someone who does not want to witness her soul being drained
Someone who would actually notice if I were to disappear
There’s a rock on top of my heart
Making it feel numb
To where not a single tear is able to roll down my cheek
Not a simple giggle can escape my lips
I’m frozen
My best friend convinces me to step away from the blades
My wrists are safe from the torture
But his words make no effect to my mind
His “you’re beautiful” translates into “you’re ugly”
His “you’re intelligent” is the same thing as saying “you’re so stupid”
But slowly, his words begin to lift the massive stone
Romans 8:18
Adds a smile to my face
A Place in this World by Taylor Swift
Has me singing at the top of my lungs
A reassuring song
The grace in His word
And the comfort from my best friend
That is all I need
To be the person who I truly am
