The One That Hides

I am the girl

The one that hides
in the corner
At get-togethers

The one that hides
Under a hoodie
Even in warm weather

The one that hides
herself within
herself when life sucks

I am the girl no one really knows
The girl referred to as "the emo"
The girl that cries at nothing
Never smiles
Needs a hug
Wants a friend
Laughs at everything
Just to pretend she's happy

The girl that falls for men
Only to find they're:
Gay
Losers
Wankers
Only in it for sex
Actually a woman
...

The girl that works at Corio's local Hungry's
&& daydreams about exotic locations
Expensive things she'll never buy
People she'll never meet

The one that hides
All her dreams && desires

You'll find her wistfully staring out the window
covered in kiddy fingerprints
that she's supposed to be cleaning
Dreaming of owning a mansion
That someone ELSE will have to clean

The one that hides everything that she is
So she doesn't have to apoligise
For the mistake more serious than a missing fries
The mistake of being born

    Such a sad poem, but its never a mistake to have been born.

    I know those situations all too well.

    Great poem.
    I hope things get better for you. In the mean time, good luck in my contest.
