She is the girl,
Who is as strong as stone.
A girl who holds back tears,
Until she is off the phone.
A girl who is not fake,
But yet living with so many mistakes.
She is the friend,
Who has the advice.
The friend who is alone
When she cries.
No one has to know,
Why she's in pain.
All she has to do,
Is make them think she's sane.
She's the girl,
Who is very hard to read.
The thing is,
That girl is me.

I was going through a tough time and it seemed that no one noticed how strange I was acting, so I wrote this hoping it would help me.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
