True Me Poem by Roxy Gonro

You walk past me,
You see a happy, carefree, ditzy, perky blonde girl
With her hair&makeup all perfect
Cute outfit and smile on her face
With all the latest gossip
Who is outgoing&preppy&loved
A girl who has it all together
Boys, good friends, good looks, family, a happy little life.
But you don't see me.
Who i really am.
You don't see the girl
Who has feelings
Who cries herself to sleep
Who is quiet and shy
Who thinks of ways to make the world better,
Who comes home and doesn't do her nails or fixes her hair,
But plays meaningful songs on her guitar.
The girl who stays up later, not thnking of boys,
But of life and what has meaning and purpose
The lonely girl who wants to be happy,
Wants to have a purpose,
Make a difference in someone's life,
Touch a soul,
The girl who is lost & trying to find a place to belong.
This is who you don't see.
This is me.
