Show The Tears
The girl with the smile on her face.
That smile is hiding a lot;
A lot of pain.
A lot of tears.
A lot of fears.
Her skinny body is telling you how miserable she feels.
She can look so fragile
But she has to be strong.
Strong because she is smiling.
Strong because she is still here,
Even though she wants to disappear.
This girl is broken
And needs to heal.
Needs to ask for help.
Needs to be herself;
Get to know herself;
Create herself.
There is a story behind that smile
A story with scars, starvation, tears and fears.
Most of the time that smile is fake.
She says that she’s fine;
But she is not.
This girl wants to be saved
This girl wants to save herself.
This girl is scared
But she wants to heal.
How can someone help her when she can’t help herself?
How can she trust people if she doesn’t trust herself?
How can you know someone if you don’t know yourself?
How can you love someone when you don’t love yourself?
The truth is that she can help herself
She is just too scared.
She could use a little bit of hope;
Hope for a better future
But there is some hope deep inside her
Buried with sadness
But it’s still there
Because she is still here.
That hope will help her
Someday
Somehow
Give her the support she needs
Give her a hug.
Let her cry.
And you:
Accept the help.
Accept the hugs.
Accept the change.
Everything will be alright
But only if you decide to fight.
Fight your fears.
