Can you see me?
Can you see me? No, not the girl in front you right now. Can you see me? The girl behind the mask, The one who fights battles in her head. The girl with many scars she tries to hide, Like the jagged remnants of a shattered mirror, Reflecting the pain she carries within. The girl who seeks validation from others, As if drowning in a sea of whispered expectations. The girl who yearns to be loved, Her heart wrapped in thorns, seeking solace. The girl whose best friend is darkness, Embracing the night like a cloak of solitude. The one who just wants it all to end, A weight pressing down, like a relentless storm. The girl who just wants to disappear. Lost in the flickering shadows of her own existence. Can you see her?"
