Take a Risk

She's the girl that everyone thinks has it all.

They couldn't be more wrong.

There are nights where she cries herself to sleep,

Dreading the morning where she will have to put her mask on again.

There are the days where she smiles from ear to ear,

Secretly breaking down on the inside.

She waits for the day for someone to love her, to appreciate her,

For who she is, for what she wants to do with her life.

She's waiting for someone to understand.

That could be you.

A friend.
