         Reflection of a Girl

A reflection of a girl
A girl who doesn't understand
Look of happiness
Yet inside sadness
So easy to hide
A mask from the world
Becomes an everyday thing
No one knows who she really is

A reflection of a girl
A girl who hides from her true self
She don't know who she truely is anymore
Scared someone is going to figure out
Yet so tired of being "fake"
Wants to come oout froom behind the mask
Afraid no one will accept her as is

A reflection of a girl
A girl who is confused
Doesn't understand why she cares
Care what people think
Why can't they accept her as she truely is
The girl without the mask
Knows she can't hide forever


I wouldn't mind any suggestions or comments you have. If there are any improvements I can make let me know.

isabelle: this is very good.. i am particularly fond of the last lines... the only place that i see a problem are the lines "Look of happiness/ Yet inside sadness"... i feel as though you have so much more to say about this, but you've limited yourself here... reach deep inside and express these lines as well as you did the rest... i know you can do it, and i feel your poem will be better for it...

sincerely,
jerome the boy with no brain


 A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
~Coleridge
