The girl in the photograph
Looks a lot like me
She's a little younger though
I'd say around Thirteen
She hides a personality,
A darker side of life
Where white becomes black
And sunlight becomes rain
Her tortured soul in ruins
As her secret is revealed
Day by day things get worse
She wishes the past would go
And never reappear
The girl in the photograph
Looks a lot like me
She held her secret close
Until one day she burst
She couldn't take it anymore
She'd fallen into dispair
Everyday became a battle
A fight to remain strong
Her world around her falling
Life being crushed by emotions
The girl in the photogragh
Looks a lot like me
bu now she's disappeared

God, that's intense....
It's a shame the girl disappeared, I think she'd have been real pretty now.
I like the fact that you repeated the first two lines a couple times. It gives the poem some structure.
Good write!
