She was lonely
I could see it in her eyes.
She was always smiling
Seemed so happy, didn't she?
Her laugh was so genuine
But I knew something was off
with that "perfect life" she portrayed.
She was a cheerleader,
She had pretty hair,
Her eyes had a certain spark to them,
Her teeth were straight,
and her parents got along.
But there was something about her,
that threw me off.
I was quite entrigued I guess you could say.
I would drive past her on her walk home from school.
Right when she would turn that corner
and was out of everyone's view,
Her smile had faded.
Her sparkling eyes showed a hidden sadness.
Her headphones in,
forgetting the world around her.
A silent tear trickled down the side of her face,
leaving a trail of makeup.
With the flick of a wrist
And a change of song thorugh her headphones
It was gone and she checked her surroundings
making sure she was unseen.
She looked at me,
surely noticing i was looking at her,
with a smile on her face
and if i didn't know any better
i would have bought the act she was playing
like she was perfectly fine.
She turned back around,
walking a little faster than before
And wiped another tear from her face..
She was running now,
Probably hoping I wasn't still watching.
She turned the corner and shewas gone.
I wonder about that girl,
If she's okay.
If she has someone to vent to.
If she, wonders about me sometimes..
She had a secret life.
That the world will never know.
Not even me.
