Beneath Still Waters
Behind all the forced smiles
Behind the portrayed brave face
Behind the seemingly jovial eyes
Lies a traumatized and hurting lass
She trusts no one
Into her heart she allows no one
For she had allowed once
To trust and allow someone
Trusting and believing so easily
Laughing, loving and adoring
Had been so fulfilling
But its now hurting
She's intent on breaking the yoke
The next time she receives a poke
She hopes she won't puke
But return the poke
She is tired and worn
After being trodden on
She needs to lay down
All her baggage and burden
She wants to be free!
