Emotional Envy

I’m the type of girl every person wants to be.

Centre of attention
Without even trying.
People gather round her,
She always has them smiling.
Only cries at films,
Life never gets her down.
She’s the type of girl
People always want around.
The life of the party,
The centre of the stage.
Knows when to act a child
And when to act her age.
The girls all think she’s clever
The boys all think she’s hot.
But she hides a little secret-
In reality she’s not.
She’s not the model student,
But she doesn’t let that show.
She struggles with her battles,
But doesn’t let them know.
She has to be the strong one,
Has to stay on top.
Even though she struggles,
She has to stay on top.
It’s easier to make them laugh
Than let her feelings show.
Just keep a happy face on.
That way they’ll never know.

I’m the type of girl every person wants to be.
But inside I’d rather be anybody else but me.

    WOW! an extremely impressive write. I think that alot of readers, myself included, can really relate to this poem. Your lines flow together well, you've done an excellent job by capturing the reader from the first line and giving the tale you weave superb closure with your final lines.
    Thanks for sharing this,

    Luck.

      Thanks for the comment! I took a while writing this. The first 20 or so lines were fine, but then I struggled to find an ending that i felt was appropriate. It took some time, but finally i was happy enough with the ending to put it up! Thank you!
